Chocolate Robot

After a few experiments on brewing a Chocolate Orange Stout we realised that the the dark malts,hops and chocolate outshone any orange flavour. Mixing orange with stout in whatever form just didn't work. Best left as a something to eat. So having done the work on a Chocolate Stout thought it would be a good idea to go for it. It's got the following malts - pale, dark crystal, brown, light chocolate,dark chocolate and Caraffa Special B. Cocoa Powder and chocolate shot. Waimea and Mandarin Bavaria hops. Brewed out to 5.0%. Looking forward to trying it.
