News: Starbucks Testing Beer-Flavored Latte

Starbucks is testing out a beer-flavored Dark Barrel Latte in a few cities here in the U.S. The fall drink consists of "chocolaty stout flavored sauce," dark caramel, espresso, and steamed milk, topped with whipped cream and a dark caramel drizzle.

Spotted on Reddit, company documentation describes the stout flavor as a "roasted malt flavor." While the drink's flavor is described as "chocolaty stout," it contains neither beer nor mocha sauce. It's available hot, iced, or as a Frappuccino.

The Dark Barrel Latte appears to be testing in Columbus, Ohio and in, at least, a few locations in Jacksonville, Florida.
