Many thx to muchloveforhops3 for this bottle.

A - Black pour with creamy caramel colored lacing and light carbonation.

S - Chocolate, cocoa, vanilla, cinnamon, and spicy peppers. You can definitely smell the heat!

T - Chocolate malt base quickly gets trodden down up front with alcohol and Bourbon which carries a little past midway and then the spicy pepper and cinnamon take over with vanilla and strawberry swirling around the palate and the toasted cocoa making a big appearance, especially on the back side and after the sip. There's a very slight green apple thing going on after the sip. (Doing this on a clean palate.)

M - Medium body that ends semi-dry and then the saliva in your mouth starts to coagulate making for a wet finish!

O - The 12% is completely hidden by the heat once you start working your way into the bottle.
