“roasted organic chocolate malt and organic cocoa extract”

Very chocolatey and very sweet. It's more like drinking liquid chocolate than actual stout. I love it, but it barely qualifies as a beer. Contains malted barley.

Bruce Banner's father experimented on himeself in the 60s with cell regeneration. He transmitted a mutation to his newborn Bruce, and, imagining the monster his son would become, tried to kill him, but accidentally killed his wife instead. Bruce nowadays works in a genetics research lab, unaware of his real father's background; his father however reveals himself and tells him why he's special and that Bruce should help him complete the experiments that he was conducting in the past before the Army stopped him. After surviving an accidentally exposure to lethal levels of radiation, Bruce transforms under stress into a green giant with an incredible strength and ability to quickly heal. He's eventually captured by the Army, with the help of Bruce's kinda girlfriend (who's the general's daugther). Being experimented on in a secret lab in the desert, Bruce escapes and is chased by the Army and eventually surrenders when he notices the amount of damage he does when out of control as the Hulk. Meanwhile, Bruce's father is also arrested. The general decides they are too dangerous and must be executed. Father and son however start to fight during their last talk before their execution. The father, trying to absorb the Hulk's energy but discovering he cannot handle it, is killed by the army. Bruce is presumed dead as well, but is actually hiding in South America.

Cohen the Barbarian and his Silver Horde are going to Dunmanifestin to “take the fire back to the gods”, as a vengeance for the latter letting the heroes getting old instead of getting killed heroically in battle. When they learn about that, the Patrician and the Wizards of Ankh-Morpork send a team to prevent this from happening, since the very powerful explosive the heroes are carrying would destroy the gods and thereby destroy all magic on the Disc, with catastrophical consequences. The team is composed of Carrot, Rincewind and Leonard of Quirm, who built the dragon-powered vehicle that is thrown off the edge of the Disc, travels below it between the Elephant's legs, and is supposed to circle back above the Disc and land on the top of Cori Celesti. Because of the unexpected presence aboard of the Librarian, they are forced to land on the Moon to refill their air tanks and find fuel for the dragons. They eventually arrive and manage to convince Cohen that if they destroy the gods, and therefore the Disc, nobody would remember the dead Heroes (which is what being a Hero is all about). The Horde leaves running with the soon-to-detonate explosive and die heroically. Or maybe actually not?
