Cacao. An ancient mystery, originating in Latin America and revered as food of gods and kings in ancient times, it still holds the power to transport us to higher planes.
Ca-Cao is our beer inspired by a beautiful Peruvian coastal Criollo chocolate which brings fresh,light and red berry notes. We combine it with carefully selected traditional Mesoamerican ingredients, including chile pasilla and chile japonés, toasted pumpkinseeds, vanilla bean, mamey pit and Mexican cinnamon.

2016 bottle from trade. Deep brown porter pour, a bit of fizz that's gone swiftly. Nose of sweet chocolate and cherry. Taste carries just a light chocolate note, and there's some vanilla, too. Would be astounding with some time in a bourbon barrel, but this is just fine. Mouthfeel is kind of light for a 10% abv beer. But there's some fine prickly effervescence, that's held up incredibly for an almost 10-year old big bottle. Warming alcohol slips in there after a while. Great high-end beer from a brewery that we keep thinking MIGHT return.

Bottle thanks to Kyle. Pours black with small beige head that lasts. The aroma is strong cocoa, roast, fudge, spice. Slick body, dark chocolate, spice, fudge, nice spice and sweetness, easy to drink hiding alcohol well, really enjoyed this.
