From the brewer (on the can):
This medium-bodied stout was brewed with cacao nibs and dried habanero peppers for a rich, chocolatey first taste, followed by a moderate amount of heat.

This stout is made with chocolate nibs and habanero peppers.
Decent off-white head. Decent lacing. The liquid is dark brown but light does pass through the center. It appears to be clear.
Initially, I smell rich chocolate, almost like fudge. Later, there's a dryness that reminds me of of pizza spices (not habanero, though).
Thinner body, but not quite at the Irish Dry Stout level. Neutral larger bubbled carbonation. The taste begins with semisweet cocoa. The literal pepper slowly comes in. It doesn't peak at the swallow, but rather during the aftertaste. This makes for an interesting beer journey. None of the flavors are extreme although it can be a distracting beer to drink.
