Spicy Mexican style imperial stout. Xocolatl and chile. A little coffee. Black pour with decent head and lacing. Some caramel. Spice sticks with you for a while on finish. Some bitterness. Tap at Beer Run.

Pint can from Beer Run, 2/11/21. Black, thin brown head, good retention. Aroma of roast, dark chocolate, cinnamon, hints of pepper. Taste is chocolate, cherry, roast, cinnamon, hints of pepper. The habenero is there but very mild, which I appreciate. Not a hot beer at all. A bit thin for the style. Overall very nice.
