First off, sorry for making a 16.6% Stout, the yeast was really happy on this fermentation. But trust us, this "Angry Little Grandma" doesn't taste that boozy at all. We wanted to create a Mexican Mole inspired beer by adding Piloncillo, Cacao Nibs, Cinnamon, Ancho Chilies and Vanilla Beans to bring all the ingredients together. Although this beer has chilies, this beer is barely spicy. The Ancho Chilies lend more of a smokiness to the overall complexity of the beer.

Mad cinnamon. Overly cinnamon. Dry cinnamon back but still tasty as hell.

Tap at Cap Hop. Pours dark brown with a dark tan head. Aroma is burning cinnamon. Full bodied. Flavor is very cinnamon, definitely chile, clearly chocolate, and vanilla. Not surprisingly heat is present, but it’s nothing near what 16.6% would suggest. It is not dry, and it is not bitter, but the chile and the cinnamon do a great job of beating down the malt. Great stuff.
