Another day, another beer from a new craft brewery i had never heard of before. From the Dallas/Fort Worth area, Shannon Brewing's Chocolate Stout might just become a holiday season staple around these parts from now on. It's a tasty brew. Pouring dark black with a light tan head, the beer smells predominantly of roasted malts, with some cocoa and coffee notes in the mix. Tasting mildly sweet at first, with hints of chocolate, caramel, and a general roastiness, the beer finishes more on the dry end with some light hops added to keep things grounded. I thoroughly enjoyed drinking this wonderful stout all afternoon watching college football, and at 5.7% ABV, it's an easy drinker. Would love to have a nitro version of this some day.
Visit the brewer.
