Chocolate Wheat Malt - very tasty stuff. Haven't tried it in a stout.

I was actually going to do an Oatmeal stout but once I got to my local store they were out of oats so I figured lets toy around with this one. I really like this one. If you not a hophead you could back off but the hops come through real well.
