Default Youngs Double Chocolate Stout Clone

Double Posting in Beginers section.

At this point I'd like to know what STYLE to plug into BeerSmith while trying to work up a recipe.

It's very hard to duplicate, Because it needs to be back sweetened and then pastureized to get the chocolate to pop out like young's does. Another hint is Dutch-ed coca tastes better than just coca in beers.

More than anything, I'm looking for guidance on how the cocoa in the kettle turned out. My preference is to create a tincture of cocoa nibs and high quality vodka and add that to the secondary, and it sounds like Young's does both.

Everyone said it came out good. To me it was a bit to sweet even though I loved the Young's. Will try it again in two weeks when I get back to Vegas. I could tast the coffee and chocolate It was a long time ago and I didn't take taste notes.
