| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 24, 2007 Bought a growler for trade at Stone, and bought a pint for myself to try. Full head that dies quickly. Dark roasted grain color and flavor that lingers in the back of your mouth for minutes. Could barely tell the chipotle, but maybe it’s clearer with a head-to-head comparison. Good beer, but a little to dry for my taste. kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

Date: May 13, 2009

Source: Taco Mac, Duluth
Appearance: black, frothy tan head, lots of lace
Aroma: smokey aroma with a touch of hot pepper, hint of dark chocolate
Flavor: hot pepper flavor is up front and builds with each quaf, light smoke grows and melds well with the pepper, dark chocolate base is way in the background but provides the needed balance, pepper heat lasts in a forever finish as a good pepper should

Pours pretty still with just a small amount of head and hardly any retention. Aroma is somky without much chipotle. Taste isn’t hardly chipotle enough but the mellow smokiness is tasty enough to compensate.Flavor is peppery with some mellow cocoa and vanilla. Needs more chipotle.

Quite spicey, pepper and chipolte that stay burning on the tongue, with the roasted malt and smoke also coming through slightly. I dont think the flavors mix too well, and the mouthfeel seems a bit thin. I geuss it’s worth trying if you see it, but not that good.
