Here's a great ice cream made with stout. Most will work, but I prefer Young's Double Chocolate Stout, Oatmeal Stout or any Irish stout.
1 cup stout
1 cup whole milk
2 cups cream
1 cup sugar
1 cup egg yolks
Bring milk, cream, and sugar to a boil, drizzle into the egg yolks while whisking vigorously. Heat to 185 degrees F stirring constantly and pour through a fine seive and chill over an ice bath. Refrigerate base for at least 4 hrs. (overnight is best). Add the beer and freeze in an ice cream machine.[/i]
