Production & Heritage

Untitled Art is a collaboration-driven craft brewery based in Waunakee, Wisconsin, known for pushing boundaries across styles — from pastry stouts to fruit sours — and its growing non-alcoholic lineup. The Chocolate Milk Stout is built on a grain bill featuring dark malts, with cacao nibs added for genuine chocolate character and lactose (milk sugar) contributing body and residual sweetness. What separates this beer from many NA competitors is its membrane filtration technology: the brewery completes full fermentation, then gently removes the alcohol through a filtration membrane, preserving volatile aromas and complex flavors that arrested-fermentation methods often lose.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Sweet chocolate milk powder leads immediately, followed by hazelnut and a light crème anglaise quality. The cacao nibs come through clearly, landing somewhere between hot cocoa and a chocolate confection.

Taste: The entry is soft and sweet, with milk chocolate and white sugar up front. Mid-palate, roasted malt emerges to add depth, while the lactose rounds everything out with a creamy, almost dessert-like body. The overall impression is remarkably close to an alcoholic milk stout — chocolate milk crossed with toasted grain.

Finish: Medium in length with a lingering confectionary sweetness and a light roasted edge. The lactose keeps the mouthfeel smooth through the close, avoiding any thin or watery sensation common in NA beers.

How to Drink Untitled Art Chocolate Milk Stout

Pour into a tulip glass or snifter at around 45–50°F to let the chocolate aromatics open up fully; this stout rewards slow sipping just as its full-strength counterparts do. For a non-alcoholic dessert float, pour it over a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an NA take on a beer float. It also works well as the base of an alcohol-free Espresso Stout Shake — blended with cold brew concentrate and a splash of cream. For a simple NA twist on a Black Velvet, layer it with non-alcoholic sparkling wine for a surprisingly elegant combination.

Best For

• Dry January participants who refuse to sacrifice flavor
• Stout lovers seeking a genuine craft NA alternative for weeknight drinking
• Gifting to a craft beer enthusiast exploring the non-alcoholic category
• Pairing with dessert courses at dinner parties where alcohol isn't being served

Reviewers have directly compared the two, noting that Untitled Art's version delivers a very similar chocolate milk and roasted malt profile but without the alcohol.

What foods pair well with Untitled Art Chocolate Milk Stout? Chocolate brownies or lava cake amplify the cacao character in harmony. Salted caramel desserts play well against the lactose sweetness.

Why Untitled Art Chocolate Milk Stout?

The membrane filtration approach is the key differentiator here.

In a rapidly growing non-alcoholic beer market crowded with light lagers and hop waters, a genuine milk stout built on dark malt, real cacao nibs, and lactose stands in a class with very few direct competitors.
