Rogue Chocolate Stout

Brewed by Rogue Ales
Style: Sweet Stout
Newport, Oregon USA

Denne amerikanske herligheten har en knall svart farge, du kan kanskje ane en dyp dyp bruntone om du holder glasset opp mot lyset. Kraftig smak, det er nesten som å drikke ren sjokolade med en liten aning tørr bitter ettersmak.

Yummy chocolate beer! Is that a bit of hazelnut? Probably not. Lovely chocolate flavor that lingers, delicious aroma, pleasant palate.

Pours black with a very thick brown head. Nice lacing on the head. Aroma is very sweet and chocolaty. Tast is the same chocolate and toasted malt. Excellent beer.

A: Deep black brew with a nice espresso type head. S: Chocolate, Chocolate, and more Chocolate did I order a Swiss Miss, pass the Marshmellow please. T: Boy does the Chocolate stand front and center here, at this point I am begging for the marshmellows. So much chocolate with a great background of malt and a hint of hop. M: average body for a stout. D: It goes down as good as it tastes. Due to the overpowering chocolate one pint or bomber is enough for me.

From the tap. Deep brown, almost black in appearance. Slight, tan head. Aroma of coffee and chocolate. Taste had some initial hop bite, while coffee and chocolate dominated the palate. Go for this one if you like a chocolate stout with hop bite.

Bomber. Deep dark brown with a quickly dissipating off white head . Smells chocolaty & with some roasted notes as well. Mouth feel is medium and goes down smooth. Taste is extremely chocolatly. of the bittersweet variety. Decent hop kick in the aftertaste which melds beautifully with the malty backbone. Even better as it started to attain room temp. No signs of cloying, but I still think one 22oz’r is enough for a night. Delicious.

Pours a deep, dark brown. Aroma of chocolate. Taste is of chocolate. Would like to taste the beer without the ’natural chocolate flavor’ added. Tastes a bit like hershey’s chocolate syrup. It is a sweet stout, so that was taken into account upon rating.

Well now, here is a special beer. In my opinion one of the best, if not the best, chocolate stouts. Velvety, smooth and sweet. I wish it was a little bit thicker/creamier but it’s very good nonetheless.
