Clear black colour, no head. Aroma of vanilla, fruity, lychee, chilli, bell pepper, caramel, bourbon, malts and raisins. Light spicy hot flavour, bell pepper, chilli, rum, sweetness and malts. Quite full body, lightly cloying, but not too much, finish chilli and light vanilla.
Nice and balanced. Great brew.
(From 75cL bottle shared by BoBoChamp. Bottle 299/405. Thank you Ignace, you’re the best!!)

bobochamps, i cant thank you enough dude ! this one was also given as a taster to me by this very generous guy ! 299/405 pours very dark brown, smell is some bourbon, taste is chili ( way less than dark lord de muerte though, wich makes this one actualy drinkable and enjoyable more ) followed woth the sweetness of the bourbon. now the thing is, each of them appart would be maybe ’nice’ but what i LOVE about this, is the fact that you first get all spiced up by the chili, and the bourbon comes in later and soften this . yet the bourbon than again isnt overwhelming ans sweet² , cause of the chili. prob the best double-effect i’ve ever seen in beer !
