That's exactly what it is, though. The barley they use is what gives it the slight "chocolate" notes, but there is certainly none in it.

It has chocolate in it. There are a few chocolate stouts out there, and they are made with real chocolate.

Now, we aren't talking hershey's chocolate here. Chocolate used for stouts is generally very bitter, and can add a nice flavor. Some malt's do add a chocolate flavor alone, you just add chocolate to increase that chocolaty goodness.

Any one every try stone's 12'th anniversary "Bitter chocolate oatmeal stout?" That stuff was pretty good.

When everyone stays within the rules, progress comes to a halt.
