Anyone for chocolate beer?

Time to put those taste buds to the test! The Sapporo brewery in Japan is producing a chocolate beer. This is very different to many of the chocolate stouts that are already on the market – they don’t usually contain chocolate but instead a ‘chocolate malt’ (called that due to its colour and vague chocolatey taste, but it’s not in fact chocolate at all). This new beer from Sapporo contains the real stuff!
Sounds like the best of both worlds. Definately would like to try some.
Awesome. Youngs Double Chocolate Stout is one of my favorite beers.
I’ve had a chocolate stout. I enjoyed it and I’m thinking that chocolate works best in a dark beer.
I met someone this weekend that is illegal to Cocoa. Guess he won’t be able to enjoy this tipple.
When I put illegal… I meant allergic :)
Tried a chocolate beer in the past. Not very memorable. It may have been may have been a Redhook. Haven’t sought it out since.
I am a true chocolate lover. I’ve never tasted chocolate beer though, but now I’m curious to try it.
Hmm,has this been made yet? Might persuade me to start drinking beer…
The perfect combination of what men and women love!
Not sure i fancy this not a big beer or chocolate lover so the idea of the two together doesn’t do much for me!
mmmm yes please love trying different beers, do they drink much beer in Japan?
i think they love their beer in japan they have a few good ones like kirin and asahi as well as many others. at the baseball games they have kids climb up and down the stadium steps with a small keg on their back selling beer to the fans.
Oh yes I love Asahi beer! Kids serving beer… not sure we’d get away with that here :)
when i say kids i mean probably about 17 or 18 all dressed up in the colours of the beer and baseball.
Phew that’s more like it was a bit worried for a moment ha ha, thanks Irene :)
