Dairy Busey Chocolate Milk Stout has returned to the beer menu at Fieldwork Brewing Co. Come and try it at our Monterey beer garden located at 520 Munras Ave.
How do we make Dairy Busey? Take the recipe from our favorite stout we ever brewed and that nobody bought. Brew said beer and throw in some adjuncts, let's go with chocolate and vanilla. Does it smell like a glass of chocolate milk yet? Then add more. Oh... and add lactose - milk sugar is so hot right now. Next, throw it off balance a bit, drop the bitterness, and build up a huge thick body so it has the mouthfeel of heavy cream. Carbonate it just enough that it will be recognizable as beer, but not so much it disturbs the slightly visible sheen from the cocoa fats. Lastly, give it a kitschy name, ideally a stupid milk-related pun; the worse the better. Et Voilà! Dairy Busey Chocolate Milk Stout.
