    Chocolate Beers

    http://www.cargill.com/food/ap/en/news/2011/NA3041196.jsp Saw this online today. Could be worth checking out...when its available next year. Timing is nice because I'd been considering trying a chocolate stout using cocoa powder of cacao nibs, guess this will eventually give us a third option.
