IRON AND STEEL

This 9.3% ABV Imperial Stout is conditioned on TCHO Ecuadorian cocoa nibs, cinnamon, and ancho chiles, offering a warming interpretation of Mexican hot chocolate. The appearance is deep black, yielding aromas of dark cocoa and spice. On the palate, a rich, decadent chocolate character dominates, balanced by notes of cinnamon and a subtle, building heat from the chiles. Hints of smokiness emerge in the mid-palate, leading to a long, boozy finish. This is a substantial, complex stout best suited for slow sipping.
