Dark murky brown with no head. Aroma is sweet with dark malts. Flavour has an initial whack of chilli heat. Later the cinnamon kicks in. Also some chocolatey malts.

33 cl bottle @ home, gift from the brewers, thanks! Pitch black color, pours like motor oil. Huge brown head with long retention, even when poured cold. Aroma’s of sweet red fruit, raspberries, marzipan. Retronasal it’s red fruit, roasty, and the heat of the peppers is already kicking in. Flavor is moderate sweet, chocolatey, coffee-ish, accompanied by peppery heat. Medium bodied. Finishes with roast and light bitterness. Peppery heat continues. It’s manageable, but as usual, it distracts from the flavor and aroma. Not yet convincing.

Bottle at Murphy’s Law. Pitch black pour with a thin espresso head. Notes of cinnamon, chocolate, roasted malts, peppers and chili. Medium to full body with an intense, but not overpowering, chili burn. Really nice.
