Chase the Devil
Fretboard Brewing Company

16 ounce can, canned on 08/27/20. Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with about a half inch tan head that didn't stay around for long. Lacing was decent enough. I like the aroma, the brew smells like coffee, chocolate, chile peppers, roasted malt, vanilla and bourbon. Taste is similar to the aroma, but with the addition of some oak and dark bready flavors. There's some chile pepper heat that kicks in more as the beer warms but still not as much as I was expecting for a habanero brew. But with that being said it's still tasty. Mouthfeel/body is medium/full, it's coating and smooth with a moderate amount of carbonation. I did think this was a good imperial stout, glad I got to try it but was hoping for a spicier brew. With that being said I wouldn't mind drinking this one again!

 

40IBU, 16oz can from the brewery, canned 09/27/20 (15+ weeks)
Pours a deep brown with no head to speak of.
Aroma is dominated by the bourbon but the chocolate and vanilla does shine through.
The habanero was very subtle, certainly a lot less heat as expected.
