Chipotle Mexican Cake
8oz pour on tap at the brewery
A: Jet black, small tan head, a few spots of lacing. 4.25
S: Lots of peppery heat, additional pepper characters than the base beer; smokey. Roasted malts and subtle cinnamon and chocolate round it out. 4.25
T: Like the nose there's lots of peppery heat; both the regular MC peppers and a nice smokey chipotle pepper character. Cocoa, vanilla, subtle cinnamon and roasted malt round it out. 4.5
M/D: Full bodied, lots of heat from the peppers provides a burning sensation throughout the drink, fairly smooth, ABV well masked, drinkability is ok. 4
O: Not hugely different than the regular MC but the chipotle peppers provide a nice smokey character which adds a nice component. 4.5

As with the other variants, the beer is not too prominent of chipotle. However, it does offer a wonderful complexity of smokey quality, a touch of meaty, and longing pepper flavor. Very much the base beer, but with a bit of added "mole" type of complexity.
