Black with a large foamy brown head that left great lacing. Very boozy with coffee and cinnamon notes. Long finish. Moderately full bodied.

Sweet, roast, eeky thin. Expected way more body. But the taste is pleasant. Smokey peppers.

22 oz. bottle, pours jet black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out lots of cinnamon, cocoa, whiskey barrels, and a touch of Mezcal. Flavour is rich and complex, with subtle cinnamon, cocoa, whiskey barrels, Mezcal, and a touch of vanilla. Rich, decadent, but not brutal at all. Lovely.

I am a long time between Epic beers. My son found this bomber in Houston and brought it to me. The label indicates a 11.3% abv, just to pass along. Tilted into a globe glass, I see a black-brown liquid topped by a thin skim of dark tan foam. I lift for a sniff and get chocolate, spiciness of some kind and grain. I take a drink, it tastes like Mexican chocolate cake. Cinnamon, dark chocolate, malt, dark bread, vanilla and a touch of dark plum. An aura of booze surrounds. Not bad but sometimes less can be more.
