375mL bottle, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma is full of spicy chili peppers, a touch of cinnamon, some oak, and surprisingly thin malt. Flavour is fairly thin, with cocoa, cinnamon, less chili on the nose, and toasted malt. For such a high ABV beer, the malts seem rather thin. Balanced and has ome nice sugars in there, but leaves something to be desired. Good, but underwhelming.

Dark brown. Thin head. The cinnamon is solid, good chocolate note. On the palate, it's somewhat thick, with a chocolate focus. It's got a touch of spice. Kind of light for the size.

Poured from 375mL bottle. Very dark brown with small beige head. Cake-like chocolate with underlying cinnamon and feint chilli, medium body. Decent.

Dark brown, thin head. Okay - chocolatey and a bit thin, seems okay in a fudgey sense but also begging for adjuncts and treatments. Probably why it took me four visits to get the base.

Brown-amber, and bright. Soft toffee malt, light dates. Alcohol floats in, it’s good but comes across a bit thin.

Slight haze, no head. Aroma is sort of those flabby malts, rye notes and substantial grapefruit hops. So a mix of good things and bad things.

Opaque and pale, with a thin head. soft, a bit light, but the flavours…those Weihenstephaner bananas, that’s spot on. Ok…they nailed the hard part (the fermentation) but were a slight miss on the easy part (mash)… so drop a proper decoction on this and win a WBC medal?
