Chocolate and BACON



This is a bacon quiche made with bacon, eggs, bacon, cheese, bacon, scallions, and bacon. 



Brooklyn Brewery Black Chocolate Imperial Stout is a pretty decent stout.  It's light on carbonation, with a short lasting head, it's moderately creamy, sits on top of your tongue, but feels like it doesn't touch the tongue.  I guess that's an oily mouth feel.  Very dark beer with a tan (light to medium) head; bitter up front and at the end, but the mouth feel is creamy, chocolate.  Flavors are cocoa, mocha, a bit of hoppiness and molasses.  Its made from American two-row pale malt, caramel malt, malted wheat and a blend of American roasted malts and barleys, Willamette and American Fuggle hops.  Available only October through March (better stock up!). 

Dieselness (soon to replace the CNN): 78
COR: 95%
ABV 10%
IBUs 51
Plato 21.7
Degrees Lovibond: 170?  probably an awful guess.
