Chocolate Stouts

This is where Rouge excels. Their Chocolate Stout. Yum.

 

Agreed. The beer that got me into "microbrew"!

 

A purist would probably say 'yes' but I think all of us would consider them to be in the same style.

 

I don't know if this will answer yours or any others question on the subject but:

Young's Double Chocolate Stout is brewed by adding the chocolate during the boil. The chocolate aroma and flavor are apparent in the beer but not dominating. The chocolate aspect blends with the stout for a balanced, elegant beer.

Rogue Chocolate Stout, on the other hand, is brewed completely without chocolate. It is mashed, boiled and even fermented without touching any cocoa. Finally, chocolate is added in a secondary holding tank where it contributes all of its chocolaty goodness without having any of it boiled or fermented away. The result is a rich stout that tastes and smells as if someone crumbled a brownie into it - except without the soggy crumbs, of course.

I much prefer the Rogue.

 

Odell's Lugene Chocolate Milk Stout is fabulous, but unfortunately they discontinued it in bottles. They're still selling a barrel-aged version, but it is crazy overpriced and not particularly remarkable.

 

Not a Stout, but the most chocolatey beer I've had is Atwater Decadent Dark Chocolate Brown Ale. If you like Stouts you may well like a Brown.

 

I just saw it on the shelves here today, and it wasn't there last week. I believe it is back. This was not the BA version.

 

Butternuts brewing moo thunder stout. Taste just like a Yahoo chocolate milk.

 

Not familiar with this one. Is it in the database?

 

That's Highland Black Watch...drank too many and got the name confused...

 

Young's are a load of shite, full stop.

 

I'm not a purest and I think they are different styles. One is a Stout the other is a Flavored Stout.

 

Terrapin moo-hoochiato, a chocolate espresso milk stout is like a liquid candy bar. Mmmm. My favorite so far.

 

Founders Breakfast Stout says it all. Ennuff said!

 

As far as I know it was always a BBA Stout . Have been picking up these here for the last few years . Was a great deal for $8 - $9 a bomber . Did not know they were moving to 12oz 4pks , glad to see it . Thanx for the info .

 

I LOVE chocolate stouts. Prarie Bomb! Is the best chocolate stout ive had. Not entirely chocolate though. Coffee, vanilla and chili too.

 

Has anyone taken a real good sniff of Samuel Smith Organic Chocolate Stout? It has the most incredible aroma - smells exactly like a tin of cocoa. I would like to have some folks blind-smell it and see if anyone thinks it is anything other than pure cocoa. Though the taste is excellent, too bad it doesn't match the aroma. Atwater Decadent Dark Chocolate Brown Ale is almost the same aroma as the Sam Smith.

 

I didnt know that but I had the beer about a month ago and still enjoyed it so I dont know If I should be upset or not lol.

 

Bit too sweet for me, that one.

 

It’s made with organic cocoa.
