Can you guys reccomend a nice stout/dark ale for me?

**Zaheed** · February 5th, 2007, 12:08 AM

I love stouts/dark ale, my favorite kind of beer.

Stouts/ales I like

-Samuel Smiths Oatmeal Stout
-Sam adams cream stout
-Winter's Bourbon Cask Ale

Stouts I hate
-guiness (too bitter)

So with that said, what can you reccomend? Also, are there any with chocolate flavoring?

Young's Double Chocolate Stout
Rogue Chocolate Stout

Winter's Bourbon is NOT a stout.

Fuller's London Porter would be a good one too. I think you'll like that.

**Zaheed** · February 5th, 2007, 12:53 AM

are porters/stout the same thing? I also like porters alot.

Basically anything very dark and thick is for me!

thanks, hopefully the liquor store by me has them! Not too worried though, the one down the street specializes in beer and they literally have everything.

Youngs Oatmeal Stout
Wychwood Black Sheep Riggwelter (fairly good beer)
Rogue Shakespeare Stout

btw, just fork up the $3 for the Youngs Dble Chocolate Stout, it is well worth it.

Interested in a trade? (for a bottle or two of said Milk Stout?)

Sam Adams Chocolate Bock

I paid $15.99 for that bottle IIRC, good luck finding it though, it's really limited. Not a very complicated beer, but damn it tasted good.

Murphy's Stout is great, but kinda close to Guiness so you might not like it
