It's the first collaboration for Pottsville-based Yuengling, America's oldest operating brewery.

The company says the beer will have "rich chocolate notes" and recommends pairing it with barbecued and smoked meats, cheeses and desserts.

The brew was in development for nearly a year. Yuengling expects it to last until February.
