What the brewers say

"Brewed with ancho chile peppers, cacao nibs, vanilla beans, and cinnamon sticks."

What our panel thought

"Soft vanilla, chocolate, chiles, light peach, baking spices. Strong dark-chocolate flavor, espresso hints. Medium chile heat lingers through finish, offset by vanilla sweetness and chocolate bitterness."

What our editors thought

"Woody, minty-herbal vanilla nose with hints of roasted malt. The sip is substantial. Quick finish feels lighter than it should for a beer of this weight."
