Mother's Little Helper

In expectation of the birth of my first niece or nephew, I brewed a batch of sweet stout for the expecting mother, my sister-in-law.  She is a huge fan of stouts and I could think of nothing more suiting for a woman who had to endure 9 months without beer.  I don't know how she did it.
