11/2611) Home:  Toasted Marshmallow Milkshake Stout by Rochester Mills Beer Co. of Michigan, U.S.A.:  *1/2; a 4.5%, 20 ibu milk stout; in addition to the usual four, which features their "proprietary 7 malt blend", this is brewed with lactose and marshmallow; sweet toasty marshmallow nose; disappointingly thin mouthfeel; notes of chocolate and marshmallows; quite sweet; nearly completely uncarbonated;
