| This is something that I try to brew at least twice a year. It's a
nice Irish stout with a little pick-me-up added (espresso). I usually
use a Chocolate Cappucino, but I've experimented with a couple of
others as well. The coffee blends quite well with the stout. I've
even won first place in the specialty beer category at a Houston
competition with this one
