Bilk: Beer and Milk

Um, eww. Coffee + beer, yes. Oatmeal + beer, yes. Hell...pumpkin + beer, yes. Milk + beer = Vomit without going to the trouble of getting drunk.

Oh that just sounds NASTY!

It's an acquired taste! :-)

You're talking about the same people who eat natto.

I prefer the optimist's view..it's 2/3s BEER! :-)

That must taste weird!

This is taking frankenfoods to a new level of WTF?

As an occasional homebrewer, I think that actually this could be pretty tasty, in a general sense.

However, personally I'm not a big fan of milky drinks, I don't even take milk in my tea, so it's probably not a beer for me. I'd give it a try though.

Oh the Japanese and their wacky food products... I don't like beer anyway, so I wouldn't drink it, but after natto, Green Tea Kit Kat, and chocolate-flavored cheese slices, it doesn't surprise me.

Ok...that's just too weird!

Ugh, I think I just threw up in my mouth a little...that sounds so gross. I like my beer pure and unadulterated, thank you :)

Calpis (sweetened carbonated milk) is a popular drink in Japan, and, recently, a popular mixer for alcoholic drinks, so this doesn't surprise me.

And--natto? Rocks.

Who knows...it might be good. Everyone keep saying milk + beer = yuck. The milk is fermented in the process of making the beer. This is not anywhere near the same as just pouring 2/3 of a glass of beer and filling the rest up with milk.

There should be a version for babies; Bilk: beer and breast milk.

Favorite drinks of Sumo Wrestlers...and Americans!

I'm afraid too many women have done this 'the old-fashioned way.'

eww beer and milk that is gross who would want to drink them at the same time!!!GROSS

I am sorry but this just sounds gross.

its unecessary phlegm

Hey, now we can get drunk and get our calcium. Sounds like a win-win situation to me! Haha, jk, i can't quite imagine the tast. Hell, i'm about to go mix up some bilk right now, I'll let you know how it goes...

Ok, after making our own instant Bilk, 3 out of 4 people wish we never had. Maybe the real product brewed and fermented is better, but we do not recommend serving this at your next cocktail party.

On the road, I have a friend who loves "beer floats": beer with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream. It looks repulsive, but I think he might actually like this Bilk...

Hmmm....i'm curious to know if adding a sweet touch like vanilla ice cream would serve as better contrast between the taste of bitter beer. However, after our homemade bilk experience, I am not brave enough to test it out a beer float. :)

ugh....that....ugh....uh......um...yea......no.....ew.

Well, milk stouts and cream stouts have already existed for a while (and you wouldn't really know they're made with milk or cream), it's not really THAT new of a thing. It's just much MORE milk in a beer than there ever has been. Whatever.

People don't realize how many different ingredients can be brewed into beer. You can make beer out of just about anything, as long as you include water and yeast and some sort of malted grain... you don't even TECHNICALLY need hops, though you'd want to use something for bittering.

Well, after stuff like FIRED CHICKEN FLAVORED ICE CREAM I'm not all that wow'd. :D

"...A bottle costs 380 yen (about US$3.12)"

Over 3 bucks a bottle???

YIKES! "Bilk" is right! LOL

Cow blood + cow milk: Acceptable, healthy
Human blood + beer: For drunken cannibals only
Human brain + beer + alcohol: Cannibal favorite
Beer + milk: That's not delicious

Why do the Japanese think of crazy foods and crazy diets?
