a: silky dark black color with a thin tan head

s: roasted malts, charred oak, sweet chocolate, hot chocolate powder. sweet malts, toffee, molasses, and leather. a touch of earthy hops. red peppers

t: toasted malts, and thick sweet caramel. sweet milk chocolate and wood. green bell peppers, cola syrup, and a bit of chili heat on the back of the throat

m: full mouthfeel with lower carbonation

o: i'm not usually a fan of beers brewed with hot peppers, but this is pretty good. the spice is more just a nuance, rather an a protaganist. Golden Premise was a great choice for this, and the chocolate and roast work well in here

Solid black with light carbonation and an above average body. Creamy thick , overall an excellent feel
Aroma is chili peppers, coffee, coffee liqueur, fudge,/chocolate .roasted malt followed
Taste is chili peppers,heat arrives half way through tasting and reaches its max in the aftertaste. Mildly sweet ,just a bit of earthy/coffee/hop bitterness. Notes of fudge, chocolate, coffee and cream.
This is an excellent stout that works as a great dessert beer or just by itself. I was truly impressed by its body,taste aroma and would pick this up again in a heartbeat
