We’re in love already: Baileys’ Chocolate Bar has teamed up with the awesome O’Fallon Brewery to produce an amber wheat ale made with real chocolate.
Chocolate beer usually means stouts and porters, but Chocolate Bar owner Dave Bailey wanted to come up with something more drinkable. “My wife only drinks lighter beers, but she is loving this beer,” he said.
Baileys’ Chocolate Bar Chocolate Ale is available on draft, in bottles and in sixers to go at the Lafayette Square hot spot and at its sister restaurant downtown, Rooster. Chocolate Ale is also on its way to store shelves. Paul Hayden of The Wine & Cheese Place and Provisions Gourmet Market reports that he’ll have it on Friday – just in time for your valentine.
