12oz bottle from brewery. Black pour, thick, small brown head. Aroma is chocolate, anise, chilis. Taste adds a bit of vanilla to the mix, blending nicely with the chocolate and a small spicy finish.

Pours a thick, dark, oily black, with smallish tan head that quickly dissipates. Aroma has loads of chocolate, some licorice, coffee, and dark fruits. Flavor is chocolate, licorice, vanilla, coffee. The peppers are certainly present and only develop some heat after repeated sips--they don't over-dominate the flavor, but really help to bring it out. It's pretty sweet, with a soft, bull mouthfeel. Touch of pepper at the finish. This is a really well-done beer.

Can, courtesy of Leighton. Cheers boss. Pours fairly thick, chestnut brown, that settles nearly black. Fine tan head. Nose has fruity dark chocolate. Peppery spice. Chilli chocolate. Rich toffee and coffee malt. Light cinnamon. Taste is a little sweet and toffee like, with some soft, peppery bitterness. Smooth on the palate, drinking well under the ABV. Light, ear tingling chilli heat. Low carbonation. Spicy chocolate to finish. Nicely done.

Can at home in Hackney - sourced from the brewery. Pours black-brown with a frothy, beige head. Really good fun, cohesive, with moderate sweetness, some chewy chocolate, restrained but present chilli kick, nips of cinnamon. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. A healthy bit of chilli burn in the throat, further semi-sweet cocoa, background roast. Really solid.

On tap at Blackback Pub. Pours black with medium tan head that lasts. The aroma is roasted malt, cocoa, vanilla, peppers, cinnamon. Slick body, similar flavors to nose, fudge, nice sweetness, light dry finish, very nice.

4 oz. draft/ brewery. Great body and mouthfeel. Cinnamon is mild. Pepper heat is mild but does show in the finish. Pretty enjoyable.
