Bottle from Homer, 2014 vintage. Pours clear reddish hazel, small beige head that dissipates fairly quickly leaving decent residual and lacing. Aroma is definintely chili pepper, chocolate, vanilla, definite tequila notes. Flavor is light plus sweet, medium bitter, vanilla much less prominent than in base beer, tequila barrel adds some smoothing and oaky tequila notes -- chili peppers provide some flavor but only a hint of heat on the finish; a bit bell peppery, like bad coffee. Medium body. Mellower and better rounded than the base, less ABV burn, less vanilla. Definitely an improvement.
