Chocolate Beer

Would a Chocalate Beer sounds good.

"Reading Terminal Market is giving beer fans the opportunity to try something a little a new take on an old favorite.
The popular Philadelphia market, which is celebrating its 120th anniversary, is offering the first public tasting of "Engine 1892 Market Stout," a newly created, local chocolate stout beer.
The tasting begins this afternoon at 4 p.m.
The chocolate beer contains 70 percent cocoa from Reading Terminal Market's Chocolate by Mueller. A tap handle, specially designed, will be installed at Molly Malloy's for anyone of age who wants to give the beer a taste.
Reading Terminal Market will offer the chocolate beer through the end of the month.

I have serious issues with alcoholism and so cannot drink, but for those do not have problems with alcohol, having a chocolate beer sounds good.

1. I had a chocolate oatmeal stout at the Trinity Ale House in Providence, RI 25 years ago.

It was very low in alcohol content but the flavor was excellent. It didn't taste like chocolate OR oatmeal - it was just full-bodied and full of flavor. Good shit.

2. It's good.

I get a brand, occasionally, that they sell at World Market (Don't recall the name and I'm at work) and it's pretty good for something different. I wouldn't drink it regularly.

3. I've had beers made with all kinds of ingredients.

Chocolate stouts are amazing. Last year I tried a beer made with peanut butter. I'd like to combine the two and see what that's like.

4. My local Brooklyn Brewery make a Chocolate Stout...

It's a seasonal thing, around the holidays, and they've been making it for the last 15 years or so.
I look forward to it and buy a case every year.
One of my faves...

7. A brewery in my neighborhood did the same thing.

There's actually two breweries where I live - one's called "The Bruery" and the other is called "Bootleggers Brewery" - both quite literally mom & pop establishments - and they made a collaborative beer that was called Chocosaurus - and it was quite amazing.

9. You. Are. GENIUS!

I can't believe I never thought of that considering how much I love chocolate and raspberry together.

I know for a fact my local store carries both. I'm doing that.

Thanks!

11. Stone Brewing collabs with Kona Brewing to make a Chocolate Macadamia Coconut Porter..

I've had it at a couple of their anniversary beer fests. It is delicious, and you can really taste every component.
