L: Pours a dark black with a small tan head and no lacing on the glass.

S: Strong chai spices and mixes with some milk chocolate, not a super interesting aroma.

T: Chai tea spices and a nice milk chocolate but still a little less than exciting.

F: Smooth medium body.

O: This one is ok but nothing spectacular.

Jet black with a short cap of off white head. Smells of Chai spice, anise, and charcoal. The Chai spice is dominant in the flavor with some roastiness and faint anise. The mouthfeel is medium bodied and well carbed.

When your milk stout is so great, your chai outa be among the best. Amen. Get out the cookies.
a) Look is a bit flattish, so would like to try nitro.
s) Excellent, strongly spiced chai stout, nothing artificial.
t) Taste follows, smooth, easy drinker.

I think I liked the nitro version a bit more but the 12 ounce version isn't bad. I like my stuff spiced (Like pumpkin ales) and this one is pretty much as expected like a Mexican hot chocolate tons of cinnamon nutmeg bit of vanilla and some chocolate goodness. Good!

Pors very dark. Light tan foam. Heavy chai aroma. Big chai flavor. Slight chocolate sweetness. Chai really lingers. Smooth. I guess chai isn't really my thing but it's not bad.

12 oz can, best by 7/4/21. Pours brown with a medium meringue tan head that retains fairly well and leaves some lacing.

The aroma is perfumey chai spice.

The flavor is a little sweet chocolate roast followed by big perfumey chai spice with an astringent finish. The mouthfeel is fairly light and watery.

Overall, I was expecting better. Not the kind of chai I like.

12oz can poured into a tulip. Pours a very dark brown; small khaki head that fades leaving decent retention and lacing. The aromas have lots of chai and spices leading the way. Some chocolate comes through. Malts are there. The flavors follow the nose perfectly. Lots of chai and spices leading the way once again. Some cinnamon really coming through. Some dark chocolate in the mix. Malts do their thing. Alcohol goes unnoticed. Mouthfeel is light-bodied with active carbonation. It's sharp, crisp, spritzy, smooth and easy to drink.

This is a nice milk stout. The spices are pretty bold. They're definitely not subtle, but I mean that in a good way. It's been awhile since I've had their nitro version, but I like this one more based off of memory. Well done. I really like it.
