Notes

Sweet Stout, also known as Milk Stout or Cream Stout, is a dark beer style characterized by a noticeable sweetness due to the addition of lactose (milk sugar) and a focus on malt flavors like chocolate and caramel, with low to medium-low bitterness.

-Add some kind of coffee syrup at bottling stage (100 ml) as well as priming sugar (50-60 g).

-Alternatively, add Tia Maria cold brew or Mozart dark chocolate liquor (250 ml) at bottling stage, as well as priming sugar (50-60 g). Note, the abv. will be increased by approx 0.5 %
