The following beer recipe is featured in the July/August 2009 issue of Zymurgy magazine. The recipe was for a 5 gal batch, but I scaled it down for a smaller batch and my method was Brew in a Bag. The original clone calls for Great Western Malt, which I could not get at the time of brewing.
Rogue’s Chocolate Stout is smooth, sweet and velvety, and tastes like a chocolate malted milkshake with slight hoppiness and bittersweet chocolate notes.
The allure of this beer comes down to the chocolate flavors, which makes it enjoyable for both the chocolate and beer lover. The sweet, creamy head gives way to a rich chocolate truffle finish. This beer pairs perfectly with desserts as it’s balanced by plenty of roasty flavor and bitterness. We suggest pairing with a chocolate cheesecake, chocolate cream pie or other rich chocolate dessert.
Created for homebrewers by Amahl Turczyn, this beer has won numerous awards since 2000.
