Samuel Adams Chocolate Bock

[luv]

Saw some at the grocery sore tonight. Tonight is going to be my cheat night. I haven't eaten much, but I think I'll make up for it by trying in.

[Mecca]

We signed Sam Adams?

[Hammock Parties]

Tell me if it's good. I like chocolate and the idea of getting drunk on something with chocolate in it is quite tantalizing.

[RealSNR]

We signed Sam Adams?Nope. We traded for him. 2nd rounder.

If you're going to get drunk on chocolate, then chocolate martinis are the way to go.

You can compare this to a CMart and tell me which one is better, then.

That would probably be delicious.

[Bugeater]

I picked up a six pack of this tonight since it was on sale.

I'm gonna take a dump in someones beer and tell em it's chocolate.

Okay, that's just nasty,

[DaFace]

Chocolate beers are one of the few types I'm not a fan of.

[el borracho]

I'm pretty sure that is alcohol abuse. You'll probably go to jail.

[luv]

I'll find out if I like this one after it gets nice and cold. It's chocolate. I'm a chick.

[KcMizzou]

I don't want any chocolate in my beer... no fruit either.

WTF's wrong with you people.

[KcMizzou]

I'll find out if I like this one after it gets nice and cold. It's chocolate. I'm a chick.See, that makes it ok.

Guys like plain old beer.

[Spicy McHaggis]

I'm with you 99.9% of the time. That said this is the perfect "desert beer" for those that are so inclined.

Although, I don't do fruit either. No lemon in my Wheat, and no orange in my Blue Moon.

[Hammock Parties]

See, that makes it ok.

I pretty much hate plain old beer you son of a bitch. I want something queer in it. TAKE THAT!

[ArrowheadMagic]

Is it too sweet? Does it come with nipples to sip it?

[luv]

See, that makes it ok.

Guys like plain old beer.

Well, as long as you say it's okay. ;)

[luv]

Is it too sweet? Does it come with nipples to sip it?

No, but it comes in a big bottle. One pint plus 9.4 oz.

[Skip Towne]

Chocolate beer? No, thanks.

[KcMizzou]

For you, whatever you can force down, and get buzzed enough to take a chance and end up waking up next to some girl.

Try a 7&7. They're tasty, and get you there quick. No sense in trying it at home, though.

[StcChief]

WTF's wrong with you people.Chocalate is one thing.....

but Orange in a REAL ALE. is something that CHEAP American Lagers can't hold a candle to, sooner they realize the error in their ways or shrinking market... better off they will be..... F The American POS lagers.

I got drunk at home last night, dammit!

I DRINK ALOOOOOOOOOONE! I PREFER TO BE BY MYSELF!

After that trip to the P&L District, I was afraid my brother's buddy Ryan (our driver) would never be seen with us again. :D (But they're going again this weekend... and he's drivin'. Says he had a blast.)

Find a driver, or drink where ya sleep.

[KcMizzou]

Sleep where ya drink, is an even better option.

That way you get to go out... (house party or something) either hook up, or just crash on the couch.

Just don't leave your dirty socks behind.

[Reaper16]

For those not liking the idea of chocolate in beer: ever had a Guinness? Chocolate is a big flavor component in Stouts.

[Hammock Parties]

lol the ending to that is so badass

Can I be him...please?

[luv]

Beef stew is now simmering on low for tomorrow. I think it's time to get comfy and try it.

[Bwana]

Chocolate beer? No, thanks.

I have brewed Chocolate beers and there is NO Chocolate taste what so ever. It's more of a style than a taste. If she is expecting the beer to have a chocolate flavor, she is in for a surprise.

[ArrowheadMagic]

You started this thread an hour and a half ago and you havent popped the top yet?

Chocolate can be savory as well as sweet. I've had it cooked with chilis to make a sauce. I honestly don't know what to expect.

[luv]

I bought it warm.

Sammy make a good beer in general, but don't expect it to taste like you are taking a bite of a Hershey bar.

[KcMizzou]

Where does the chocolate come into it, if not for adding chocolate flavor? Is there any actual chocolate involved? Or is it just a term for a brewing technique?

Now I'm curious.

[ArrowheadMagic]

I bought it warm.

heh, warm is my 2nd favorite beer.

[KcMizzou]

heh, warm is my 2nd favorite beer.It's my 3rd.

1. Free
2. Cold
3. Warm

[luv]

Interesting.

And chocolate is bitter when there's no sugar.

This is actually very good. Hint of tht bitter chocolate taste. Very rich.

[luv]

Couldn't get a good picture.

[ArrowheadMagic]

1. Free
2. Cold
3. Warm

heh, warm is moving down my list, always forget the free kind... brewed just like I like it.

[Bwana]

I would have to check my recipe for that brew, but as luv stated, not all chocolate is sweet. Even if you did stick a "Hershey Bar" in the brewing process, the yeast would eat it up (the sugar) and take out the sweet taste, but would add to the alcohol content. When I brewed with chocolate, I brew up a chocolate porter.

Heh, try Doppelbock. I can't stand it myself, but it has a hell of a kick.

[luv]

I don't think I'd be able to tolerate much stronger than this.

[Bwana]

I don't think I'd be able to tolerate much stronger than this.

Doppelbock tastes nothing like beer. It's really hard to explain the taste, but it's very malty and I have seen it reach 12-13%. It will burn the paint off cars, and knock the hair off your cooter. Nasty stuff IMHO.

[Reaper16]

I'm partial to Maibocks as far as lagers go.

I was thinking the same thing, getting a good laugh at people who think that a chocolate bock is a "chick" beer. That stuff will put hair on your chest.

Dark rich malts. Low hop content. High Alcohol content. Finishes smooth and sweet.

I'm jealous.

I'm going to have to drown my jealousy in an IPA. :)

[Bwana]

If you drink two bottles, you will likely be on top of the local water tower howling at the moon. :eek:

[KcMizzou]

Yeah, KcMizzou! :pCurses... Foiled again!

I honestly thought it was something like the "raspberry ale" I was asked to taste a while back.

That was kinda like a beer/wine cooler. Think... dropping a Jolly Rancher in your beer, like the Zima drinkers used to do.

[luv]

Well, I'll finish this bottle tonight. Probably almost a pint left.

Been through 3 bottles of Sierra Nevada Extra IPA tonight. It's pretty sessionable; I'm not feeling anything despite the 7.2% ABV.

I tried a 75th Street Raspberry Ale while I was up in KC in 07. Wasn't too bad, but I just don't do fruity beer, either.

Have you tired Alaskan IPA? That is a rather tasty beverage.

It's a good description, yes. And well worth the $13.99 I splurged on it.

I love just about everything that Widmer does.

I personally love a good fruity beer, unashamed. But if you're drinking it in any time outside of the summer, I'll look at you crook-eyed. Fruity beer is strictly summer beer, to be drank in the full summer sun. Pete's Wicked Strawberry Ale is about the shit. Pyramid's Apricot Ale makes me drool just thinking about it.

Oh, I do love strawberries. Just not sure about having them in my beer.

One of the best beers I have brewed to date was a Strawberry. EVERYONE who tried it, loved it. Fresh Strawberry's in the batch, damn that was good on those hot August nights. I need to brew that again this summer.

I like orange or lemon slice in my Hacker Pschorr. I've really gotten hooked on that - I don't want to drink anything else now.

And I tried Blue Moon last night - tastes like a mix of beer, orange soda and dishwater. Fuck that was gross.

I like Blue Moon. Blvd Wheat is better.

I had a chocolate beer at a Buffalo Wild Wings a year or so ago and it definitely had a chocolate flavor. It was the worst beer I've ever tasted. I couldn't take more than a few pulls before I had to push it away and get something else. I don't remember the brand, but it wasn't Sam Adams.

Homebrew unlurk

Most of the time Chocolate beers just have what is called chocolate malt in them. This is basically a roasted malt that imparts the roasty bitterness of chocolate but does not contain any chocolate. Along with this, some beers add cocoa powder, chocolate nibs, or other dark chocolate items that don't contain sugar for more of that chocolate flavor.

I have said this before but again Youngs Double Chocolate Stout is the best Chocolate stout I have ever had

Blue Moon... tastes like a mix of beer, orange soda and dishwater.

QFT. Since I live in KC and boycott non-North American brews, I'm a Boulevard Pale Ale 20-pack guy, and have an unfiltered wheat occasionally. I like a Blue Labatt-omy every once in a while, but haven't had one in about a year.
