A bitter dark mild, nothing particularly special, but a decent pint. . .
3/5
Month: July 2021 (Page 3 of 7)
The last of the fifth birthday special edition imperial stouts to sample, its been an epic journey that I am sad to be at the end of. . . I put off trying this for some time as I love chilli and spicy food etc. but. . . I have been bought a number of chilli beers before and they have been awful, just pure heartburn in a can. . . I finally plucked up the courage to try this after reading up on “mole sauce” and realising that it is actually a dessert sauce in Mexico with chilli and tomato in it.
My initial thought was to keep it for when I am due to do a chilli, so as not to waste it, but it didn’t matter, a beautiful beer. had a warmth to it from the chilli sure, but it had a classic stouty flavour, super malty with a nice undertone of chocolate. A great all round beer and definitely the best chilli infusion I have tried. Nailed it BY / Fierce!

This is an odd one. Its quite bitter in flavour, red in colour, tastes really complex, but I couldn’t quite tell if there was a slight vinegariness to it, which could be related to the fact its 3 months past its best by date. Would like to try again but fresher.

Wow, this is great. smooth, sweet, very similar to Brew Yorks Tonkoko, but dare I say. . . I think I actually prefer this!
