    Recently discovered an inkling for some stouts. Recommend your favorite stouts with good chocolate/coffee notes!

    You really can't go wrong with Alesmith Speedway Stout as far as coffee goes, and as FleetwoodMatt said above me, Peche Mortel is excellent though I'm not sure I'd buy it again at 7 dollars for a 12 oz bottle. Definitely worth it just to try though.

    As for chocolate stouts: its not exactly crazy-over-the-top-imperial (but hey, not every beer has to be :wink:) I think Bison Organic Chocolate Stout is awesome, especially if you want to have a few in one sitting without getting shitfaced.

    cheers and happy hunting :slight_smile:

    This mixed with salty caramel ice cream makes an awesome beer float.

    Neither are advertised deliberately as chocolate or coffee stouts, but you're going to find those flavors in there.

    Even though it has been discontinued I can still find some bottles of Southern Tier Mokah around. It's a great blend of coffee and chocolate. Definitely worth trying if you can find it.

    Find yourself so Breakfast Stout STAT!
    I mean theres no better stout for the money if coffee/chocolate is your thing.

    Victory at Seas is a very good choice as well.

    Second, FBS.
    If you can find Stone Espresso Stout, this years alternate, its very good.

    Allow me to suggest a few that have not been mentioned yet...

    If you like chocolate, you need to find some Caldera Mogli asap. Drinks better than many stouts.
    If you like coffee, you need to locate some Williamsburg Alewerks Cafe Royale.

    Both continue to blow my mind every time I crack one.
    So. Damn. Good.
