What Our Editors Thought
"Earthy spice-driven nose with a Thai edge—lemongrass, roasted peanut, basil, ginger. The sip gets hot quick, with a chile burst. Umami notes with light chocolate and lingering heat."
What Our Panel Thought
"Light chocolate-cinnamon aroma, with chiles and espresso. Malt-forward flavor—bittersweet chocolate, light cinnamon, moderate chile. Rich roasted-malt complexity, with a drying pepper heat."
What the Brewers Say
"Molé stout with notes of peanut butter, cocoa, prunes, star anise, cinnamon, and ... chiles."
