Ooopf you get that agave sweet hit right on the first whiff. Black Treacle creeps out the dark malts to contribute to the aroma. This beer drinks silky smooth and syrupy but its not to be mistaken for a soft or sickly stout! Although agave sweetness carries through in each sip, the grain-bill keeps the balance with a dry and roasty undertone. Somewhere there is a little kick of licorice. As you drink on, the touch of chilli and light heat is kindled and completes the Mexicana essence to this complex and beautiful beer.

Sample at the Shelton Festival. Pours black, with a big, creamy, tan head. The aroma is chocolate, celery, banana peppers, syrup, and walnuts. Sweet and chalky, with a light bitterness. Heavy body, with a creamy mouthfeel. The spice doesn't distract, but adds to a solid stout.

Bottle at ChrisO. It pours jet black with a thick tan head. The aroma is sweet, sticky, oily, marzipan, chilli spice, chocolate, churros, cinnamon and vanilla. The taste is dry, bitter, quite hearse, charred, burnt toast, peppery, warming chilli spice, cocoa, dank chocolate, cinnamon, vanilla and some booze with a spicy finish. Full body and moderate carbonation. Nice aroma, but it tastes pretty harsh.
