A Mil Máscaras of flavour. This Imperial stout will wrestle your taste buds to the canvas in a Tag Team of insane sensory assault. Coffee, chocolate and alittle spice on the nose. Dark chocolate mixes with mocha, vanilla and spice, all layered over a smooth nitro-styling you never saw coming. This set-up finishes with a delicate habanero drop kick as the bell sounds.

Jeg går en mørk planke på SKAAL, nov-18: brunsvart med fint skum som varer helt ned. Mørke malter, kakao, feite sjokolader og en god dose lekker chili. Superb winter warmer.

Taste is slightly dry sour-ish roasted, dark malts, toast, minerals, bitter chocolate, roasted grain, burnt coffee, soil, grass, dark sugar, burnt licorice, hints of dusty chili. Medium bitterness, slightly watery and dry sour-ish roasted mouthfeel with a tiny chili sting. Fair enough, just boring...

Draught @ TCBW’18. Rated on 5.5.2018
Aroma has sweet cocoa and malt. Flavour has vanilla, sweet cocoa tones and sugar. also mellow licorice tones. Too sweet, would probably not work even as a slow sipper.

Keg badged as 'Get Out Claus'. Badged as a Mexican Hot Chocolate stout. No marshmallows mentioned, which created a hard-to-pin-down sweetness that came across a little like talcum powder and lactose. I guess I liked the can version. The keg was just a bit odd. Have left the original rating. 330ml can from Fanzine Club. Pours black, thin off-white ring. Aroma has warming chocolate. Taste presents warming chocolate, distant chili, some vanilla notes, peppery somewhat with some underlying spice. About half way through some distinctly sweet marshmallows start to emerge, alongside lactose and additional milk chocolate. Interesting porter.
