Rogue Chocolate Stout

Bottle. Pours with a large, dense head brown in color. Body is dark brown with excellent lacing. Hints of chocolate, roasted toffee, molasses, vanilla, and plum. Creamy palate with a short duration. Decent beer but not long lasting. Serves as a good desert but needs more flavor.

There are certain pleasurable experiences that separately are divine. Put them together and you open yourself to a mind-blowing sensual experience. A delectable stout and chocolate is one of them. A good stout on its own will have varying levels of chocolate notes, so when you add real chocolate to the mix, it gets dangerously close to beervana.
Coming to me today on draft is the Rogue Chocolate Stout. So far, my only other chocolate stout experience has been the Young’s Double Chocolate Stout which is sinfully delicious. My Rogue came to me a dark murky black with hints of burnt earth peeking through along the sides and bottom of my glass. The nose is an immediate immersion in a warm vat of milk chocolate with a hint of cherries in the mix. Chocolate covered cherries, anyone? A dark beer does not necessarily denote a heavy or thick beer, and the Rogue Chocolate Stout is neither too thick nor too heavy. A pleasing medium body and a lightly drying palate leaves no cloying presence, but instead a refreshing and sweet experience. Rich succulent milk and dark chocolate notes mingle together in harmony as a bitter bite nibbles on the top and sides of my tongue after each quaff. Smooth and creamy sweet, she starts and finishes in an enveloping aroma and body of milk chocolate temptation with a hint of espresso.
I really enjoyed the Rogue Milk Chocolate stout more than I thought I would. I didn’t think there were any chocolate stouts out there which could top Young’s but Rogue may be the best contender at the moment.

Thanks to rsamayoa. Bottle: @ informal ratebeerians gathering, Liked it. sweet but still a beer. smokey malty and earthy; great dessert drink.

Gracias pollo en la casa del gordo esta cerveza esta deliciosa me la tomo cualquier dia con estos buenos amigos. Que rica me gusta es buena

Pours BLACK from the bottle with a thin creamy tan head. As soon as I opened the bottle I could smell the bitter chocolate, very nice. I can taste malt, coffee, and of course chocolate. Mouthfeel is medium, creates a weird tingling sensation. Very bitter finish. Will try again, very good.
