A true local collaboration, landing at a big and bold 10%, this Imperial Stout is brewed with 3 kinds of Mexican Chillies: Chipotle, Ancho and Guajillo plus Cacao nibs and Cinnamon, these ingredients have now all been used to brew up a special batch of our famed Imperial Stout which has then been aged for many months in a Chiefs Son Distillery Whisky barrel before being bottled in this large specialty beer bottle.

Bottle. Black with a skerrick of light tan head that lasts at the rim. Complex chocolate brioche, roast, spice, caramel aroma - the whisky broadens the aromas of the normal version rather than sticks out itself. Full bodied, lowish carbonation. Fruity chilies, chocolate warmth from the whisky but no overt alcohol. Heat from the chiles builds a little more than in the normal version. A little bitterness at the end. Powerful yet tastefully restrained.
