Death by Chocolate Cake. What would happen if we took one of the nation’s best loved, super-indulgent desserts for inspiration, and applied it to our most indulgent beer? Even more cacao nibs, even more cacao husks and even more wood. It’s doubled down and ramped up to imperial strength. Once again, Amburana wood is arguably the star of the show here. These spicy, fragrant spirals impart all kind of flavours, not dissimilar to the complexity of tonka beans, and it's remarkable how everyone seems to pick up something different from them. It's a truly unique beer that we're very proud of.

330ml can from the brewery. Poured almost black in colour with a short-lived frothy tan head. The aroma is roasty malt, big chocolate. The flavour is moderate sweet, light liqourice bitter, with a smooth, rich, roasty, chocolate, coconut, floral, warm boozy alcohol bitter palate. Over medium bodied with soft carbonation.

Pours black, red shine, see trough. No real head. Scent is roasty, some cinnamon. hidden chocolate. Taste is medium intense, cinnamon, sharp expression by the cinnamon-like features of the Amburana. Not that coffee forward. OK.
