Here at Wander Beyond we love working with new and exciting ingredients to create new and exciting flavors and beers! Szechuan pepper has been an ingredient we have wanted to work with for a while now and finally this imperial stout base gave us the opportunity to. Straight away you can get the szechuan pepper on the nose accompanied by a hint of vanilla. These both carry through into the taste and are joined by chocolate and hints of maple syrup with a spicy heat to finish imparted via the cayenne pepper.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours dark brown, almost black, with no foam. Aroma is mostly vanilla and cacao beans at first, with the pepper character coming out later Body is fairly dense, sticky, in particular after the first approach. Taste starts fairly sweet, but then the expected roasty bitterness and quite a peppery feeling emerge as dominant in the final.

Draught No head left; uniform black, still beer. Sweet, cacao, chocolate, vanilla beans and sweet roast. Some heat from the cayenne, lots of cacao and cocos, and quite some whisky-like booze. Good balance from the ingredients, important. Fully oily feel, full bodied, heat. Good one, if not sampled under ideal circumstances.

Can at home. Pours black, nose is chocolate, cream, lots of spice, taste is similar, cayenne a little overpowering.
