Description:

This beer tastes great but needs to be served warmer to taste all the flavors. I think the chocolate and coffee flavors blend nicely with the dark roasted stout flavors. I couldn't taste as much coffee as I wanted to so on my next batch I greatly increasted the amount of coffee. It came out (I think) even better.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup black patent
• 1 cup roasted barley
• 1 cup chocolate
• 1 can Telford Shamrock Stout (4 lb.)
• 3 lb. dark DME (Telford)
• 2 oz. Hershey's unsweetened baking chocolate
• 1/4 cup Hershey's Mint Chocolate Syrup
• 1/2 cup Hershey's cocoa
• 1/4 cup Chocolate Mint coffee (ground)
• 1 oz. Perle (8%) half at boil, half at 30 minutes
• 1 oz. Hersbrucker (1.5%) finishing
• 2 packs Nottingham ale yeast

Procedure:
