This imperial stout is carefully blended with Dutch chocolate coffee, cinnamon, nutmeg, and habaneros and then aged in bourbon barrels. Smooth and spicy with a warm, lingering finish.

Pours black with a light tan head. The aroma is of bourbon, chocolate, and spice. The flavor is pretty bourbon dominated with underlying chocolate, pepper, and roast malt. Very good.

12 oz can, dated 09/14/2021. Pours black with a tan head. Cocoa cinnamon aroma, with I think the nutmeg coming across a bit like banana, and a hint of the habanero. Cocoa powder and bourbon/oak lead the flavor, with the habanero and cinnamon following, and again a hint of the nutmeg coming in. Fairly sweet, and very good.

2019 bottle from Holiday Market. Pours a pitch black with a finger of beige head that dissipates. Cinnamon, cacao nib and nutmeg all over the nose with faint chili habanero aromas as it warms. Medium to thick body on the palate. Bourbon whiskey notes with more cinnamon and chocolate with some very faint oaky vanilla underneath as it warms. Lingering pepper notes, but not overly spiced as all. Lingering pepper, cinnamon and cacao nib with a warming bourbon note. Really solid to be honest.

355ml bottle at Erik's. Appearence: very dark brown with a dark beige head Aroma: sweet with cinnamon and habaneros, kind of bakery spices Taste: similar, but VERY spiced, it is CRAZY SPICY... ooh... myyy... goood... Overall: fuc@ing spice bomb, the spiciest beer I've ever had. I cannot tolerate this level of spices in the beer and I don't 3ven think that beers like should be even brewed as it's not even a beer, it is a spicy drink

Dark brown. Thin head. This has a really big spice and rich chocolate character. On the palate, big spice, lots of chile, good cinnamon, and a bit of vanilla. Rich and tasty...I really like this.

12 oz. bottle, pours black with a small brown head. Aroma is loaded with cinnamon, chili peppers, and cocoa upfront, with a touch of bourbon barrels. Flavour is very spicy, with loads of chilis and cinnamon upfront, accentuated by subtle bourbon barrels. Intensely spicy but tastefully so. Fun beer.
