Taste has chocolate, vanilla, milk chocolate, coconut, vanilla, fudge, cocoa, chili, spices. Hooooly shit this is good. Perfect blend of the spices, barrel and coconut. So different from the rest of the cakes and so, so good!

(Tap sample @ CBC 2016 Green Session, Copenhagen) Nose is rich fudgey chocolate cake, hefty coconut, full bourbon barrel notes of whiskey, vanilla, charred wood. Flavour is dark chocolate and chocolate cake dough, sweet coconut, bourbon, vanilla, light wood, rather sweet and fudge-like overall, but with ample drying provided by above average chili pepper heat on the back, lightly smoky and amplifying the slightly bitter roast in the back end. Aftertaste is dry and chili-forward with lingering chocolate, coconut and spirits. Quite full bodied and softly carbonated. Beautifully rich but not a sugar bomb, if anything I found the chili slightly overbearing balance-wise in terms of blowing out the long finish. A really good stout.

Draft. A black beer with a brown head. The aroma has notes of soy sauce, roasted malt, coconut, chocolate, and a bit of vanilla. The flavor is sweet with notes of roasted malt, soy sauce, chocolate, and coconut, leading to a dry roasted finish.

Backlog. Sample at CBC Green Session 2016. Pitch black with a small tan head. Loads of coconut, caramel, vanilla fudge and some milky chocolate. Some light chili spice and some cinnamon. Absolutely amazing. Everything just melts together almost to perfection. Wow!
