Harpoon Chocolate Stout:
Greetings all and welcome back to a review of a beer that brings back memories from childhood and it’s a great winter beer too!  Today we look at Harpoon’s Chocolate Stout which upon the initial sip, brings back memories of the chocolate sauce I used to put on ice cream when little.  I don’t remember the brand but this beer taste exactly like that syrup did but with a booze back and is so close to being the same viscosity it could probably still be used for that same purpose if you were so inclined….  Oh, sorry, got off on my own there for second.  Where was I?  Oh yes. The beer pours a ink black with hints of ruby red, a head of chocolate milk that leaves some lacing, and a nose that is similar to the nose of a newly opened bag of chocolate chips.  The taste is fairly straight forward being an stout it has that good chocolate flavor that I mentioned before and a nice coffee aftertaste and all with a boozy kick.  Yeah, this is a great beer, one that give chocolate beers a good name and gives you reason to have beer for dessert.  Enjoy.
