(Bottle) Black colour with lasting, creamy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of dark chocolate, black coffee, oak wood, black rye bread and a touch of cognac. Malty, roasted taste with dark chocolate, cacao, coffee, vanilla, dark bread, tobacco, oak wood, a touch of cognac and a balanced cacao bitterness in the finish. The chilli stays in the background at the first sip, but grows over time, and gets quite hot after a while. Slightly more than medium body, mainly dry but with some sweetness coming through. Quite complex and interesting. Still very well balanced. Very nice beer.

Botella de 37.5 cl. De el lĂşpulo, en el momento 09-04-2014. color negro intenso con espuma bastante oscura y persistente..... Aromas a maderas tostadas y quemadas con toques de especias, chocolate y ligero cafĂ©, aumentando todo ello a medida que va calentando ...... Cuerpo medio con 6.6 vol bastante fácil de beber con paso por boca bastante cremoso y fino, con tonos de licor acentuándose al calentar...... Sabores de quemados y tostados dominados por especias suaves, notandose la vainilla sin problema, seguida de un ligero cacao. SensaciĂłn de licor seco y con toques de madera presente y acabando con picante seco y terroso del chile bastante intenso y que permanece en boca durante un buen rato. IncreĂble cerveza, para repetir sin duda. Una de las grandes.

Taste is slightly sweet, slightly bitter, malty and spicy with roasted malts, bitter chocolate, burnt caramel, charred wood, chipotle peppers, dark roast coffee, cinnamon, hay, moist soil, coconut shells, vanilla fudge, crème brûlée and hints of salty liquorice hard candy. Mouthfeel is soft, silky, tiny watery, spicy hot and medium bodied.

05.01.2014, 0,375l bottle @ home:
Nice brown creamy longlasting head. Aroma is slightly rich and sweet, dark malts, salty licorice, dark sugar, coffee, chocolate, chili, hints of oak and alcohol. Taste is kind of watery, minerals, harsh vanilla, dark malts, grass, chili, burnt coffee, cocoa. Little bitterness, very thin watery mouthfeel. So disappointing!
