HUH? What? We did this last cask fest and it’s back. Chris Percello, the mastermind behind the beers at Uno is brewing a milk stout and there will be 1 firkin infused with one of the following ingredients. Leave your comment below and tell us why you’d like to try that beer. Perhaps the best answer will be invited to tap the firkin?
Remember, it’s a Milk Stout with… (pick one of the following candidates)

The cask fest is pay as you go the bar area is open as well as the main dining room starting at noon for the event. Many local breweries come hang out to talk about their cask during the event. It’s a great time!

I think its asking for some fennel seed or star anise. you could even just add real licorice root if the budget is big enough
dan, i just madea black licorice milk stout(using star anise) will let you know how it turns out! bottling tomorrow.
The cherry wood/pork roll infusion sounds interesting. The fattyness would play off the bitterness of the stout, but compliment the sweet milk sugars. I can’t wait!!
Kung-poa pepper please!
pepper please 🙂
Pumped for this as always. My vote is for Toasted Coconut because it sounds delicious, and it should compliment the awesome milk stout Chris is going to brew, and not overpower it.
I like the licorice/anise suggestion for a Milk Stout.
I used to make an awesome Vanilla Bean Imperial Stout (11 – 13%) that had a licoricy taste to it that everyone loved!
Kung-Pao Pepper Milk Stout!
Pork Roll would be awesome Chris.
Coconut. I’m thinking the milk stout + coconut combination will evoke a hint of those addicting “Irish Potato” candies that come out this time of year…
