An American Porter brewed with chipotle chilies, giving it a rich and robust malt base combined with a tingly spice.

Bottle. Pours balck with a brown head. Hops and dark malts in aroma. Notes of dark chocolate. Taste is hoppy at first, then malty (coffee and chocolate). The aftertaste is quite spectacular with notes of smoke, bitter dark chocolate and some chili. The chili is quite balanced and actually a "natural" part of the brew. One of the best chili brews iv’e had even if its a little too much of everything for being really drinkable.

Very stable, huge and very dark brown head over near black beer. Roasted coffee nose, dry hops and mole sauce, and very outspoken black cardemom peel aroma. Coffee, spiced, but the typical smoked chipotle flavour only comes out retronasal, together with a telltale heat in the throat. Well-bodied, very slick, fiery MF. Smokiness mounts all along. Certainly not bad - but... Doable as it might be on the chili matter, I had already problems finishing a glass; 75cl bottling is a silly idea, a real waste in this case.

Draught at Copenhagen Beer Festival. Very black with beige head. Asphalt aroma.Chocolate and caramel coms first, chili heat joins later, coffee liesin the background. Sweet with fairly hard mouthfeel. The chili burn crashes with the roastiness. Not one bit pleasant I’m afraid.

Draught @ Orsted Olbar, Norre Farimagsgade 13, 1364 Copenhagen, Denmark.Clear dark black color with a average to large, frothy to creamy, good lacing, mostly lasting, light brown head. Aroma is moderate to light heavy malty, roasted, burnt, coffee, iodine, smoke, moderate hoppy. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and heavy bitter with a long duration, smoked, chili - alcohol burn finish. Body is medium to full, texture is oily and sticky, carbonation is soft to flat. IMO a bit tomuch chili burn, result is that the beers is not easy to drink ... [20100410]
