Chicory was one of the first beers we started brewing at our pub back when it opened in 1995. It's a dark beer made with a bunch of roasted chicory, organic Mexican coffee and licorice root. We use Simcoe and Warrior hops, as well as pale, roasted and oatmeal grains.
Back in 1995, we had a teeny, tiny brewing system and had to brew all day, every day to keep the bar stocked. Brewing with the same four ingredients got really boring really quickly. That's when Sam's ADD kicked in and he started adding some nontraditional ingredeints.
The roasty and delicious Chicory Stout, now available on draft only, is a fantastic food beer. It pairs very well with chocolate!

Aroma is roasted and slightly sour with cocoa and some milk chocolate. Foamy and a bit light palate. Flavour is a bit light, slightly sour and somewhat dry with some licorice, coffee and milk chocolate. Decent.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Dancing Camel. Thanks zvikar. Very dark brown with a beige head. Roasty aroma with coffee (a bit of espresso) and a hint of bitter chocolate. Pleasant roasty and coffee-ish flavor. Medium-bodied.

12 ounce bottle. Dark brown, black opague liquid with a big rocky tan head. Big roasted malt aroma, hints of charcoal, tobacco, cocoa and espresso coffee. The roasted malt dominates here. I can taste the chicory, licorice and coffee. The oats really make this smooth and drinkable. Their is an underlying hop prescence, but it takes a backseat to the layered maltiness. A wonderful stout that should not be missed.
