Bronx Uptown Milk Stout joins the brewery’s B-Sides lineup this month. Interestingly, this is the first time the brewery has released a stout.
The Bronx, New York based brewery makes their living on Bronx Pale Ale, an English pale ale meets American hops hybrid. Since it is finally cold this winter, it’s time for the brewery to go dark.
Bronx Uptown Milk Stout features small-batch roasted Ethiopian coffee from the brewery’s next door neighbor, Uptown Coffee Roasters. In additional to the lactose milk sugar for creaminess, the brewery adds caramel and chocolate malt. Bronx tells Beer Street Journal the finish is “a rich, full bodied stout that delivers a dark roasted and chocolate taste that would make any coffee drinker smile.”
Bronx Uptown Milk Stout is available on draft only, where Bronx is sold.
