Super sweet Mexican hot chocolate stout. Big chocolate flavours from the malts and residual sugars marry perfectly with warming cinnamon and chilli spice.
Yeast: Thomas Hardy ale yeast
Hops: Phoenix

Hard to comment on the pour as this little bugger exploded absolutely everywhere when I popped the can. Treat that as a disclaimer. Smell is interesting, with a little heat but sweet spice as well. Cinnamon, some clove maybe. Flavour follows that. Heat and distinct chilli flavour but loads of malty sweetness too. Interesting. It's a little flat which might be because of the duff can, but it's nicely balanced and has a nice richness too.

Can from the brewery online shop. 070322. Pours rich black with a thick tan head. Aromas of chocolate and spice. Cinnamon and nutmeg. Taste has a hint of heat, lots of rich chocolate. Velvety finish.
