Comfortably Numb from Brouwerij Hommeles's Untaped series is a milk stout at 8% ABV that places dark malt and roasted grain aromas at its centre. The nose reveals coffee, roasted grain and milky chocolate. On the palate, sweet and bitter notes intertwine with coffee, cocoa and blueberry hints set against pronounced roasted character. The finish is sweetish and warming, driven by the alcohol strength.

This intense, challenging stout is smooth and creamy on the palate, with a full body that suits its style and strength.
