Black, fast fading brown head. Boozy chocolate nose, spice notes. Palate of coconut/chocolate/pepper/wood. Sweet with harsh alcohol heat that detracts. Poorly blended

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Black colour. Bold, a lot of alcohol, and it feels it, the spicy pepper just adds to it; chocolate and vanilla; good, but not well integrated.

473 ml can. Pours black with fizzy head that dissipates quickly. Aromas of sweetened chocolate, dark sugar, vanilla, and slick roasted malt; with maybe a bit of dry roasted chilli peppers. Flavors follow same with the peppers more pronounced, additional coconut and a bit of cinnamon. Tasty, with peppery finish.

Poured from 473mL can (thanks for saving Fiulijn). Dark brown with no head. The cinnamon, vanilla, and cayenne are all fairly balanced with each other. Not a particular standout, but decently done.

16oz @ Matt's new place. Appearance: dark brown with a tan head. Aroma: spicy, booze, some chocolate. Taste: along the same lines, very spicy. Overall: too much spice.

473mL can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out cocoa, vanilla, cayenne pepper, cinnamon and roasted malt. Flavour is a bit jumbled, with cinnamon, cocoa, coconut, chili pepper, and vanilla. Not exactly cohesive -- there's a jumbled earthy character to it. Haphazard and lacking integration.

Dark brown. Thin head. The aroma has a good dose of vanilla and coconut, with a fair bit of chocolate as well. The cayenne lends some heat, and then the cinnamon and vanilla kick into the finish.
