Notes

A fairly low hopped, smooth stout.

Pure cocoa powder adds some bitterness that is not measured in the stated IBU.

Friends that really don't like normal stout very much enjoyed my previous version of this due to it's low bitterness and smooth texture. The amount of cocoa used only adds very subtle flavours - do not expect it to taste like dairy milk.
