Holy cow (quite literally, I think I'd become a cow if I ate this). This sounds fantastic, but it also sounds like it would be my last meal. 
It is starting to look like a Beer Related Food Recipe forum is needed as well; some good recipes popping up.
Does that make 6 or 600 servings?

Agreed - I'll look into getting this started soon...
I just realized that this may be the first recipe I have seen with beer that my wife will enjoy as well! This may give me an excuse to pick up some Rogue Chocolate Stout as well.
I can vouch for the deliciousness of Rogue Chocolate Stout. It surprised me when my girlfriend said she liked the taste of it. She said maybe I should get one for her next time instead of that smirnoff twisted stuff she drinks. Having her get into beer would awesome.
My wife prefers all of the darker heavier beers to the light ones. I think it's the roasted, choclate flavors. Of course she still drinks Mike's, two ends of the spectrum I guess.
My wfie is good for about a 1/8 of a pint of Guinness, but that is about it. She won't touch hardly any other beers. That is part of the reason why I have a cider going now. I am hoping to make something that she will drink. I plan to give a mead a try as well for the same reason.
lol, sounds like all of you are trying to get your ladies drunk!
Wow, what a delicious sounding recipe. I think I'd be drunk before I could finish the task. Ice cream sandwich, anyone?
