The chocolate in this beer is a specially selected and roasted blend by Krak, featuring Mexican cocoa, Soconusco El Vado Lote, which imparts herbal notes, ripe plums, red fruits, and a soft nuttiness.
Four peppers were selected after an extensive pepper taste test —Guajillo, ancho, Arbol, and Chipotle— to complement the chocolate, providing a beautifully warming layer of flavor to this pastry stout. Don't worry, no firefighters will actually be needed, you can handle this.
To enhance the depth of flavor, we've incorporated the finest vanilla, a dash of cinnamon, and a hint of coffee. This thick and indulgent beer is crafted for those sweet pastry moments that deserve a warming kick. Enjoy!

Craft Beer Junction bottle share. Thanks to Cloin for the can. Opaque dark brown beer, no real head. Smooth and slightly viscous palate, modest fine carbonation. Chocolate syrup malts into a mild smokey chilli. Airy finish. Fine but underwhelming.

Sample (thanks fonefan!). Pitch black colour, small off-white head-. Aroma is sweet malts, liquorice, some chocolate, coffee and mild smmoked tones. Flavour is chocolate, some syrup, roasted tones with mild smoke as well as some alcohol burn to it. A bit peppery, but still interestingly creamy and chocolaty aftertaste. Lovely beer with Manchego cheese.... just sayin'....

44cl Blik van De Laat. Zwarte kleur, bruine kraag die snel verdwijnt. In de geur zijn de pepers goed terug te vinden, hint van groene paprika ook, kaneel, koffie, chocolade, brownie, heel licht pittig, bitterzoet. Volle body, dik. Lekker.
