It's a drink and a nosh all in one!

Recently, Sankt Gallen has been gaining notoriety for their line of specialty chocolate beers. Notably, their Imperial Chocolate Stout is an ultra-dark beer that uses ‘over twice the ingredients of your average dark beer including roasted “chocolate malt.”’ However, these extra ingredients reportedly make the beer overly bitter.

So, why not balance it with something sweet.

Initially for sale online starting February 1, Sankt Gallen developed a glass created entirely out of chocolate to pair with the stout. The chocolate used to make the glass was specially formulated to dissolve in your mouth, rather than your hand. Additionally, the chocolate is strong enough to withstand 5 servings of beer, consecutively, before it would have to be eaten.

can you buy the chocolate "glass" separately? because I think it'd serve as a great "home" for Leinenkugel's Snowdrift Vanilla Porter.

Made by M&Ms?

Interesting idea. Hopefully the beer is high quality and its not just some marketing gimmick.

The hardest part is not to eat the glass before I finish the beer. I'll be telling myself "don't bite down, don't bite down" the whole time I'm sipping.
