Keep it up, and it just might. We'll see how the hops grows at 3000 feet - I'm confident with my malts.

Migael, Vintage Chocolate Stout is a stout ale made with no less than 50% black caramel malt, lightly hopped, and with a hefty percentage of raw cocoa nibs in the primary ferment. This is allowed to age at least 6 months after bottling. Mine has an alcohol content of about 5% although if I allow it an extra month in the secondary fermentor, I can get it up to about 8.5% (which is technically a barleywine). Chocolate stouts are smoother of flavour than regular commercial ones (ie Guinness), can stand to be chilled a touch more, and have more character to their bitterness (thanks to the combo of cacao and hops). The only stout I enjoy more is Oatmeal Stout, but this is a pain in the tuckus to brew since it involves infusion brewing during the initial mashing stage, whereas Chocolate Stout is a single standard mash. I also do some unique things with the hops, but those are my own secrets and I shan't be telling anybody those.

I wouldn't drink Maker's Mark. If you do, no more than two ice cubes, and nothing else.

Wow I wonder what you would come up with if you had several acre's of sugar maples.. ? :^) You can tell when someone has a passion for something if they describe something to a "T" and leaves one's pallet yearning... lol (If it's a food or drink)
Thanks Lorax.. I don't like anything straight-up except beer & that's for cookin' too :^)

If I had several acres of sugar maples, I'd be making maple meads and syrup! I miss maple syrup so much....

Patty in Wisc

Michael just bought me a bottle of Ketel One vdka & it came w/ a martini shaker. We keep Fleishman's around so we did a taste test. Oooh, Ketel One is so much smoother!
So, I'll have a martini - shaken, not stirred, with 3 olives & a lemon twist please.

I'm not that fond of the hard stuff--though I have been know to down a few shots of Two Finger Gold at a friends Christmas party.

I like wine and beer and have a pretty wide range of taste, but I like full bodied red wines and nutty brown beers best. I used to make beer, but now focus mostly on making wines--mostly fruit wines. I just made my first kit wine-- a Choclate Raspberry Port--awesome, but most of what I have made is blueberry wine and hard lemonade.

Lorax, I had a friend that makes some great beer and he made a Chocolate Brown Stout that was probably the best beer I have ever tasted!

Just an amaretto sour, please.

jeffreyp

for me two double shots of jagermeister....
