About This Episode

Featured Breweries:

Samuel Smith’s Organic Chocolate Stout

5% ABV
_Samuel Smith’s Brewery_ - Tadcaster, England
“Brewed with well water (the original well, sunk in 1758, is still in use with the hard water is drawn from 85 feet underground), the gently roasted organic chocolate malt and organic cocoa impart a delicious, smooth and creamy character, with inviting deep flavours and a delightful finish – this is the perfect marriage of satisfying stout and luxurious chocolate.”

6.2% ABV | 33 IBU
_DuClaw Brewing Company_ - Baltimore, Maryland
“A classic full-bodied chocolate peanut butter porter with a smooth, dry finish & just enough hops to balance aromas & flavors of roasted malt, chocolate, & rich peanut butter. One sip and you will…exclaim the name!”

Founder’s KBS Chocolate Cherry Imperial Stout

11.6% ABV | 45 IBU
_Founder’s Brewing Company_ - Grand Rapids, Michigan

Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Cocoa Porter

8% ABV
_Lexington Brewing & Distilling Co._ - Lexington, Kentucky
“Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Cocoa Porter is brewed with cocoa nibs and 100% barrel-aged to build out a rich full body porter with notes of bittersweet chocolate, roasted malts, oak, vanilla, and rounded out with a sweet toffee finish.”

Left Hand Brewing Peanut Butter Milk Stout

6.2% ABV | 25 IBU
_Left Hand Brewing Company_ - Longmont, Colorado
“Rhythm and Blues. Batman and Robin. Peanut Butter and Chocolate. These classic duos never go out of style. Enter Peanut Butter Milk Stout. We took the pure milk chocolate bliss of our classic Milk Stout and added peanut buttery goodness. It’s like an adult peanut butter cup you can drink. It’s rich and decadent on the palate and lusciously lingers into a nutty, dry finish. A perfect pair you’ll want to share.”
