Can from lowcostbeer, no BBE date but as a dark beer it should be ok. Dark brown with fizzy beige head which dissipated quickly; looks a bit like cola. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee, brown toast, hint of caramel, chilli. Taste is quite sweet with notes of roasted malt and chocolate, some smoke plus a moderate chilli heat which hits the throat and tip of the tongue. Medium bodied, modest soda like carbonation. Without the chilli the stout would be pleasant if a little bland. Chilli elevates it really well. Possibly the best chilli flavoured beer I have had but its looks crap so that's effected the score here.

Can thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - deep brown to black. Thin beige. Nose - light smoke and earthy. Savoury. Taste - savoury and earthy, then smoky and light chilli spice. However, it's all engulfed in dark chocolate. Palate - medium bodied, creamy texture, light spicy edge. Overall - a bit earthy and a bit spicy. OK.

Can from the Black Storm brewery online shop. Pours black with a thin beige head. Aromas of coffee and chocolate, light heat on the taste. Didn't hate it.
