A Note on This Beer

Mm-mm! Can you smell breakfast cookin’? Oh wait, that’s not breakfast — it’s the newest drop of How Now Brown Cow from Virginia’s Aslin Beer Co.!

Aslin brewed this sweet and silky Milk Stout with real maple syrup and coffee so it overflows with the flavors and aromas of a hearty morning meal. Like a short stack of fluffy chocolate chip pancakes, absolutely drenched in maple syrup, served with a warm cup of medium-roast coffee, and a small side of smoked bacon — it’s chocolatey, roasty, maply deliciousness with just the slightest bit of smokiness! 

And, what places this breakfast brew above others like it is the fact that you really COULD down a can with your morning meal without having to cancel any plans you had for later. Aslin brewed How Now Brown Cow with a super manageable 6% ABV, so it’s ultra-delicious AND ultra-drinkable.

It’s this kind of boundary-pushing creativity that made Aslin famous in the first place. The Washington Post calls them “one of the [Atlantic] region’s most buzzed-about breweries.” 

But, that’s the thing — outside of that region, you don’t even have a chance at loading today’s breakfast beer onto your plate. Unless, of course, you let Tavour serve it up for you!

With Tavour, it's easy to beer it forward! Just head over to Tavour.com/gifts to send a gift box or gift card to the craft beer lover in your life. Cheers!

Easy drinking. Loved the maple; easily noted without being hit over the head by a syrup jug.

Ordered from Tavour. Chilled and poured into a goblet, expecting a thick stout. Look: dark brown, almost black in the glass. Finger size light tan head, Nice lacing Smell: day old coffee, light maple syrup, astringent notes that are difficult to separate from the coffee but more associated with a baltic porter Taste: sweet on the front with coffee in the nose, mid maple notes with astringent coffee, maple on the backend with some bitterness Feel: light tickle of carbonation, somewhat full/thick mouthfeel. The lactose (milk) adds to lacing and fullness Bren loves the maple and I am a coffee fan. I was hoping for a thick, full, rich milk-maple stout... the mouthfeel is a tad more than a brown ale or American porter. The ABV makes it drinkable. If you like maple and coffee and a light drinkable beer I guess this one would be good. For what I was expecting, fell a bit short of my expectations. Cheers!

Really good milk stout. A little on the flat side, went down with a thin syrupy texture but flavor wise was good. Flavors mixed well with a dominate taste of maple

Decent milk stout. It was on the lighter side. The coffee notes took a back seat on this one, lots of maple up front, not a bad thing though.. It was smooth, blended well. Nice and enjoyable. I would almost put this is in the category of breakfast or a light dessert stout thought because of the sweetness.

Was it missing some heft? Yes. But was I left wanting more? Yup. And that’s not a bad thing.

Wonderful stout! Fantastic notes of coffee, chocolate, and a touch of malt. The only thing I would change is to make it more creamy, either more lactose it nitro infused.
