STOUT FLOAT
How many of my favorite flavors can be packed into a glass? Plenty. Stout, coffee, chocolate, and vanilla make for a grown-up, earthy (but still fun) take on a float. I prefer a deeply chocolatey stout for this, but it's just grand with any deep, dark porter you love-although I'd steer clear of oyster stouts for this. The vanilla seeds in the whipped cream may seem like a minor detail, but they're not: they help to bring all the flavors together, and the small, brown flecks complement the rich color of the stout.

Steps:
- To a tall, soda-fountain-style glass (or an imperial pint glass), add the coffee liqueur and one scoop of the ice cream. Slowly add the stout and the second scoop of ice cream. Top with as much freshly whipped cream and grated dark chocolate as you like.
STOUT FLOATS
On a recent visit to London, Knauer overheard a local in a pub ordering a "Guinness and Black" - which turned out to be the famous Irish stout plus a shot of blackberry brandy. That combination is also the genius behind these floats; the brandy's luscious fruitiness bridges the gap between the sweet ice cream and bitter beer.
