Sweet stout was known as milk stout until it was banned under the Trade Description Act. This delicious and creamy beer has a rich history and a unique flavor profile that sets it apart from other stouts.

Milk stout gets its name from the addition of lactose, a type of sugar derived from milk, during the brewing process. This ingredient gives the beer a smooth and slightly sweet taste, which balances out the bitterness of the roasted malt. The result is a beer that is dark, creamy, and full-bodied, with flavors of coffee, chocolate, and caramel.

Despite its name, milk stout does not actually contain any dairy products. The lactose used in the brewing process is fermented by the yeast, leaving behind a subtle sweetness that enhances the overall flavor of the beer.

Unfortunately, the term "milk stout" was banned under the Trade Description Act in the UK in the 1980s, as it was deemed misleading to consumers who may have thought the beer contained milk. As a result, brewers began referring to this style of beer as "sweet stout" instead.

Today, sweet stout continues to be a popular choice among craft beer enthusiasts, thanks to its unique flavor profile and smooth mouthfeel. It pairs well with a variety of foods, from rich desserts to savory dishes, making it a versatile option for any occasion.

Whether you prefer to call it milk stout or sweet stout, there's no denying the appeal of this delicious and distinctive beer. So next time you're looking to try something new, why not give sweet stout a try and discover why it's been a favorite among beer lovers for centuries.
