    I really like schmaltz and terrapin colab reunion. If I'm not mistaken it has chocolate, pepper, vanilla, and spices. Really good pepper flavor as well.

    Sam Adams The Vixen was ok but I much preferred NB cocoa mole which featured more chocolate IMO. I didn't care for Ska mole as it came off too "spicy" for me. Abraxas is awesome but is much bigger and blacker than the others, and at $20/bottle it is really in a different ballpark than the others.

    Not sure if Mexican Cake has chocolate it in, but it has a significantly prominent spice, and it is delicious. But as others have said, Huna is even better.

    Personally, I really liked Theobroma, I thought it was very unique. I also like the concept.

    Not quite a chili choc beer, but Ballast Point Indra Kunindra is a curry spiced stout that goddamn amazing. The roast malt gives it lots of dark chocolate and some coffee, with the curry spice and cumin simmering on your palate in the background giving a nice chili-like heat. And it smells incredible, plus I can have more than one at a time because it's 7%.

    There are Chocolate Chile Beers? Hopefully these aren't the same people who make derogatory comments about weird beers. To each their own, I guess.

    El Mole Ocho and Cocoa Mole are both awesome. Pipeworks End of Days is a delicious milk stout made with cacao nibs, vanilla beans, cinnamon sticks, and ancho chilies, but is only available in Chicago.

    I forgot about Theobroma til I saw some mentions here. Its probably been 2 years since I had it but I remember thinking it was pretty good.

    I'll throw in another vote for Mexican Cake. That beer is amazing.

    Doesn't Chocolate Oak-Aged Yeti have a little bit of chili pepper in it?

    EDIT: I just checked. It has a ``dash of cayenne''. I knew it had a dash of something.

    I really dig the Elysian Peste. Solid all-around porter with a good heat on the back end.

    whaaaaaaaa...?? holy shit, I must get my hands on this. I loved Chocolate Sombrero. Smooth, nice chocolaty flavor with just a touch of chile on the back end.

    Had my first one of these last weekend. Agree 100% with your assessment!

    Duclaw HERO Chipotle Stout is pretty good. Cocoa Mole and Chocolate Sombrero are probably my two favorites though.
