Bottle text & Info:
Brewed with a blend of 10 different malts, Double Cream is an incredibly rich stout composed of dark, sweet and smooth tones intermingled with a soft, roasty finish.
Tasting Notes:
Pours a deep brown with a dark tan head that quickly settles to a quarter inch. Smells faintly of sweet malts. with a touch of lactose. Sorta like sweet cream. Mouthfeel is silky smooth but a bit thin. Sweet malt notes coupled with vanilla open and transition into a subtle roasted coffee note. Always good to see a solid entry into the Milk Stout category for those looking for something besides the run of the mill Guinness. I'd like to see just a little more body on this. Solid, but not the exceptional experience you expect from Bell's.
