Hannelore's = Chocolate Stout?
« on: 07 Aug 2009, 12:48 »

I never would have pegged Hannelore as a Chocolate Stout kind of girl. She always struck me as the type who'd nurse one glass of cider throughout the night, then go home and drink a bottle of wine or two. Or five. (If she makes it that far. The girl's a stick.)

I would've imagined Faye as the Chocolate Stout drinker - Dora would be the one trying something new.

Steve....well, he probably takes his martinis shaken, not stirred.

Raven probably does Jello shots on a weekly basis. That is, if she's still alive.

This started as a joke thread but it's getting too serious.

I was a little surprised by the chocolate stout order too. Maybe she thinks it means "tastes like a chocolate bar". I'm pretty sure Jeph has mentioned that it's fun to draw her reaction to drinking things she doesn't like, so there might be a disgusted grimace tomorrow.


Or maybe she just likes that kind of beer.

We know Hannelore is willing and able to have a five-martini evening.

She's requested it for soaking in, after that bet with her mother.

Not usually. Generally it tastes like someone brewed a cacao bean, which is good because that is more or less the process by which the stuff is made.
The problem is that chocolate as it arrives in your hand wrapped in shiny plastic frequently has very very little to do with actual cacao beans in terms of flavour or texture, especially if it's "milk" chocolate.

Chocolate stouts are somewhat bitter, as they're not processed with milk and sugar, like candy chocolate.

It'll suppress it. What gets me is that she's capable of doing things that she wouldn't have been willing to do, but afterwards, she still remembers what she did, and would be horrified, or catatonic if it was bad enough. Hell, for that stretch that she was on meds, she was smoking and doing gods know what else. She should be undergoing DRASTIC measures to remove the accumulated toxins from her lungs.

Check her medicine cabinet; she probably has a roto-rooter to get the tar out of her lungs.

Pure cocoa is absolutely disgusting though. I greatly enjoy dark chocolate, and find milk chocolate a bit to sweet, but i once tasted some that was 99% cocoa and the smallest bite had me spitting in the sink for the next 10 minutes. It's so bitter it's unbelievable anyone ever had the idea to make food out of it.
