Around The World In 80 Beers Episode 56: Young's Double Chocolate Stout.

[den]

Another from the dark depths of Bedford.



Pours a deep opaque black with a medium-sized, creamy tan head.

First sip: Dark chocolate and roasted sweet malt. The hops shows up mid-taste and lingers, leaving a slightly astringent dryness. Mouth-feel is smooth and creamy and... chewy.

My goodness this is good! It's highly drinkable and tasty and leaves a nice warm feeling in the belly. Even the beer-burp is nice. This is an excellent after-dinner drink, suited to a long, slow quaff.

And as it warms in the glass, it just gets better.
