Black, with a medium, frothy, tan head. The nose is dark chocolate, leather, paprika, vanilla, cayenne, and walnut. Sweet and malty, with a light, pleasant bitterness. Quite a lot of heat, but not overpowering or unpleasant. Heavy and decadent. Tasty, fun, and well done.
Cinnamon and smoked peppers made this a tasty drink!

From Beer Drop. Canned December 15th 2022.
It pours a clear straw gold with a finger of foam with some good lacing.
Smell is floral and spicy hops, with a note of biscuit.
The taste is lovely spicy hops balanced by biscuit malt that are very vibrant and fresh. It finishes with that hoppy goodness. It seems very Germanic to me.
Good mouthfeel for the low abv.
It's a hit with me.
Pachanga life
Tiny Mexican chocolate stout, thic flavor.

Nice crisp and pretty hazy orange and amber coloured body with a nice glow and a thinnish, single to two centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of very strong pumpkin pie spice with a lot of allspice and canella along with a good hit of nutmeg and anise. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong rich squash flavour comes out with a lot of richness along with a punch of the spices front and centre with a good nutty, rustic quality as well, with a good sweetness towards the end. Aftertaste shows a great blend of the nutty, earthy qualities, with a bunch of nice seasonal spices and a great richness from the malt and squash, especially. Overall, a very nice and enjoyable beer with a nice seasonal spiciness that isn't too much, but shows a lot of flavours and quality, especially with the rich squash notes throughout, especially in the nose and a good sweetness as well, with some moderate alcohol that hits at the end. Great to sample and well worth trying to find, especially if you like pumpkin-based beers. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Total Beverage in Thornton, Colorado on 30-January-2022 for US$2,40, canned on 27-August-2021 and sampled on 26-November-2022 after returning from Thanksgiving in Connecticut.

Tap. Pours clear black, small beige head, good lacing. Aroma is pretty adjuncts, loads of cinnamon, mocha, lactose. Flavor is way less sweet than feared, call it medium. Light bitter. Actually pretty good in a ham handed way.
