I'll cut to the chase here, this is a truly special beer. One I'd heard plenty about, but never gotten around to trying. Given an abv of 11% I decided it was a sharer.
Having finally taken the plunge I can say that if you enjoy the likes of Abbaye de Rochefort 10, Traqauir House 160-, or Old Chimneys Good King Henry, then this beer will tickle your taste buds in a most agreeable way.
Rich and smooth with a delicious mouthfeel, it is very drinkable. The chilli is there in the aftertaste, but it is subtle. Not overpowering at all. Don't be put off by thinking this is a spicy beer. The chocolate smoothness is the number one flavour, the chilli just adding some depth.
Approach with caution due to it's strength, but savour the taste of a spectacular beer.
