We invite you to the gates of Werk Force. Aged for 15 months in Buffalo Trace bourbon barrels this latest variant of our Sleepy Bear series is a chocolate bomb. Rested on freshly grown Ghost, Carolina Reaper and Death Spiral peppers this barrel aged stout packs a punch. The end result is a perfect harmony of decadent chocolate with a touch of heat and smooth vanilla that make you come back for more. A great balance of notes between the layers of flavor hell-town. Welcome to the world of Hell Bear!

Clear, dark brown pour, opaque in the glass; thin, patch head, tan colored, lasting. Rich dark malt sweetness on the nose; fudge and milk chocolate. Incredible and beautiful flavors; rich cocoa and chocolate base flavors with an over-arching chili pepper heat. Heavy and viscous mouthfeel; fiery chili pepper heat; sticky.
Hellfire and damnation! This is one fantastic chili pepper stout!! It is bourbon barrel aged, but, in truth, the base beer and the chili peppers rule with this one.
