Samuel Smith's Chocolate Stout!

I bought 4 bottles just the other day in Chantilly VA.

 

...oh and I do like this brew...looking to pick up more.

 

I was disappointed and unimpressed. Not that is was terrible but I thought mediocre and very overrated. I prefer Youngs.

 

My God, a chocolate beer that tastes too much like chocolate. They really screwed this one up for sure.

 

Is this one making it to MA? I haven't seen it around.

 

I agree with the alcoholic Yoohoo part, however I quite enjoy Young's Double Chocolate.

 

I picked mine up at Wegman's in Northboro a few back .

 

For what it is it's good, I didn't enjoy it much myself, but I agree with the two comments that its very similar to SA Chocolate Bock, and alcoholic yoohoo... something that years ago I may have enjoyed more.

 

ISO : Alcoholic Yoo Hoo

 

Loved the stuff! I would not recommend the beer to anyone that despises sweet beers.

I would love to find a four back but PA only has cases (to my knowledge) and it runs 62 bucks. Might split one with a friend.

 

I drank a 4 pack of it last Sunday, and as a stout lover, I was blown away at how smooth and delicious it was. Awesome coconut notes in there, it tastes like a liquid mounds bar, only better. I plan on buying more and it will make a great alternative to the other stronger, hop-heavy winter warmers this month.

 

i've heard this more often than the praises it's been getting but havent tried it myself

 

Gots: Baileys and Yoo Hoo.

 

Was a bit overboard on the chocolate. Like more than a Rogue double Chocolate.

 

I've had two so far and loved both of them. Liquid tootsie roll!

 

Mounds bar, delicious! Tootsie roll, not so much.

 

Definitely a winner straight out of the gate. Samuel Smith's is always quality.

 

Hmmmm.might have to give this one a try.

 

Glad I took my local beer store guy's advice and picked up 2 the first time I had it. Then I went back for a 4-pack. It tasted better chilled in my opinion.

 

It is in MA, seen it at a few shops in metro west. I found it to be thin and overly sweet without the dark chocolate depth I expected. Not a drain pour, but a lot less than I had hoped for from the king of Oatmeal Stouts
