Not for babies, this sweet stout or milk stout is rich malty and well balanced with the goodness of milk sugar to offset the deepest dark colour and minor roast coffee notes from Eclipse Wheat bitterless black malt.  Looking for something to sip fireside with your slippers and smoking jacket on? Looking for something to tuck you into bed at night and make sure you sleep like a baby? Look no further – Condition | Milk Stout will put you in the right frame of mind on a cold winter’s night or any night for that matter!

Cheers! #brewhappy #drinkhappier #enjoyresponsibly
