Sam Smiths do a fantastic chocolate stout.


It's really chocolatey.


They sell it at Hop Burns and Black :)


Oh maybe I'm not allowed to post on this thread, sorry :))

I've recently encountered - and very much enjoyed - chocolate beer, coffee beer, chilli beer and smoked beer (the best being the 'Dirty Stop Out' smoked oatmeal stout by Tiny Rebel Brewery of Wales). The more variety the better i say - my current fave is the Tiny Rebel 'Cwtch' - an amber/red ale with a bitter, spicy, malty and - yes - tropical fruity thing going on. Delicious.

Coincidentally I had one of these yesterday. Good flavour - but I'd go along with the complaints above that a lot of *strokes chin* 'craft' stuff is over-gassed.. and thought this one was as well.

    • I sometimes don't feel as comfortable as I did but it's not because I'm older, it's because I'm sober. Staggering home when I was younger I always felt I like a had a cloak of invisibility around me. And a magic compass - not even sure how I found my way home some nights. 
    • I'm London born and bred and have always considered myself streetwise having grown up in Notting hill (pre getrification) and I lived on the border of Harlesden (kensal green) in the 90's  when it was pretty sketchy round there .and I spent much of the 80's and early 90's in downtown New York.. I would walk everywhere at all hours of the day and night and never felt particularly uneasy largely because I was always mindful of my surroundings and walked with 'purpose'. I don't know wether its because I'm now so much older but I don't feel as comfortable as I used to walking round London. Today I was in the West end and I made sure to carry my bag on the opposite arm to that facing the kerb and felt uneasy when I saw people wizzing around on limebikes or scooters close to the kerb..I never got my phone out at all...I never used to feel like this but just recently I've had friends witness phone and bag snatching in central london in broad daylight..apparently it happened so fast in both instances there was nothing anyone could do to help..One phone snatching was during the tube strike 7.30am two guys on bikes grabbed a mans phone..My friend took the victim to a nearby hotel to sit down and recover the hotel said due to the tube strike they had witnessed many duo's of youth out very early on bikes aware that there were more pedestrians around at that time with their phones out trying for Ubers or looking at directions. I would'nt say I feel 'unsafe' I just feel more aware of being a possible target for crime than formerly. I don't know if this is due to being older or due to reading the press.
    • The fact everyone has had a CCTV camera in their pockets for the last 15+ years has done a huge amount to prevent and mitigate random drunken violence.  Thugs can't get away with what they used to anymore.
