33 cl can on February 20, 2016, thanks to Ingo! From Systembolaget.BB 18/09/16, marked 6.7% ABV.Malty, light sweet, perhaps a tad roasted scent. Clear deep brown to black color, fizzy but lasting brown head, no lacing. Light roasted, malty, sweet, mineral, light bitter, some chili taste. Malty, roasted aftertaste, also some chili. Medium mouthfeel, medium to medium low bitterness.Also coffee in the nose when warming up slighhtly.I find no smoke, no cocoa, no vanilla.For drinkability, the chili comes very close to be way too much and overpowering. I do like chili, I like heat, but there needs to be a balance and other characters coming through, I would not finish a can by myself.

Can. Black with a light tan head that’s soon less than a coat. Aroma is a little shy, but has plummy chiles, mocha (as much coffee as chocolate), some plastic. Lightish but surprisingly silky texture underneath moderate carbonation. Taste is of chipotles and chocolate, with some edamame (!). Fairly bitter and a little acrid at the end. Didn’t do all that much for me.

Rated on June 7th, 2014. Pours black, nice beige foam head. Aroma has a bit of chilli. There is also a note of liquorice and caramel but I wouldn’t say this beer is a lager. Taste is surprisingly spicy and in a relatively good balance. It is spiking the mouth, has some bitter roast and leaves a long-lasting glow, pampering your mouth. Finish is a bit raw. Solid brew, incredible what can be done with a lager type of beer.

Very dark brown color. Nice frothy light brown head. Chilli spice, dark chocolate (I guess cocoa nibs)z the nought is med with lots of cocoa nibs, and the chilli hits the back of your throat. Decent body. Can’t get much of the agave, which is probably a good thing. Slightly boozy finish. Drinks a bit higher alcohol than what it is. Very enjoyable.
