On tap at the brewpub. A black one, topped by a dense, two-finger light tan head. Lacings. The aroma has a wonderful tonka bean scent, with chocolate, dark coffee and a faint note of chili. Marzipan and a spiced touch too. The flavor has the same lovely tonka impact found in the aroma, with the chili more present. Chili warming in the mouth, full bodied and nicely carbonated. Lasting finish. This was really, really wonderful. 130914

On tap at the brewpub. This is a special version of Black Velvet Stout with some really mean habanero chili. Body is black with a medium sized, dense tan head. The habanero is definitively present in the aroma and feels a bit fruity as well, leaving less space for the roasted malt. Flavor is sweet roasted malt like the original beer, but the hot habanero is quickly dominating most of the experience. Somehow I feel the same hard roasted malt from the black velvet more smooth and even the body even feels lighter in this beer. The aftertaste leaves me with just a hot burning feeling in the mouth. It’s totally drinkable and even not the hottest beer made at CB, but still to hoot to do this beer any good. It’s a novelty beer out of balance.
