Samuel Smith's Organic Chocolate Stout

They shouldn't be legally allowed to call this beer! 'Chocolate pop' would more accurately describe this remarkable brew. It's delicious and a real treat. Even my missers liked it. Wonderfully chocolaty in both nose and flavour with not a hint of bitterness, I wondered how Tadcaster Brewery (home of Samuel Smiths) themselves describe it. Sure enough, it announces itself as 'Malt beverage with natural flavour added', which doesn't really sound like beer. Yet it *also* calls itself a stout, so what's the dice? Anyway, whether it's schizophrenic or just having an identity crisis ("I identify as a stout" blimey can you imagine? Next it'll be wanting access to the girlies' bathroom), this stuff's bl**dy delicious. Just sayin', like. Highly recommended.
