Sheana Davis of Epicurean Connection hosted an openhouse Monday evening at the Rogue Ales House in North Beach which Brewed for Thought reviewed. Guests included brewers, cheese makers, wine makers, chefs, press, picklers makers, tea importers/purveyors, kobe breeders, retailers, and many other food service industry allies. Thanks to everyone who came for sharing in the celebration!
If I were a bottle of Rogue, I would be the Chocolate Stout... but wait, I am! Since late 2000 I've been the face on this award winning beer, brewed in Newport, Oregon by Rogue Ales. These are my musings about how to drink this elixir, as well as notes on pairing it with different foods, and cooking with Rogue Chocolate Stout...so share your experiences and recipes, and join me for the journey!

Chocolate Stout winter warmer... neat!
Goodbye 2008... what a year, and its over.
Hello 2009...change is in the wind, bring it on!
A few words of wisdom for 2009 from the City of Brotherly Love ~ how to enjoy the long, dark and cold days of winter ~
"On frosty nights when darkness comes to fast, there's nothing like a rich, inky stout to warm you. The dead of January is prime time for one of America's most revered beers, Chocolate Stout from Rogue Ales in Oregon.
Plush in the mouth, with a whisper of sweetness and a creamy froth, this black beauty is loaded with flavors of espresso and bread pudding.
Try it on tap at South Street's Ten Stone, Jose Pistola's on 15th or Ron's Original Bar and Grille in Exton.- M.O."
