I bottled a chocolate stout a week ago, and it's clearly bad. The beer has a film on top and some on the neck, and it's starting to make weird looking bubbles. I was hoping go give it away as Christmas presents, but now I'm going to dump most (all?) of it to free up my swing top bottles.
Does anyone have suggestions for a high-ish alcohol stout that doesn't take forever to be drinkable? Even if not by Christmas, I'd still like a good stout for myself this winter. I'm doing partial mashes, so if someone knows a good one from the recipe database, it would be appreciated. I'm considering the Founders Breakfast Stout clone, I think I saw a PM recipe in there somewhere.
Thanks
