◎ Appearance

Deep black-brown body with minimal clarity, characteristic of the style and adjunct loading. A dense, tan head forms and clings to the glass with strong lacing retention. Carbonation is restrained, allowing the viscous character to dominate.

◌ Aroma

Licorice candy dominates the nose, backed by dark roasted barley and a whisper of cocoa. Black pepper and isot spice emerge in the mid-ground, creating a complex, warming aromatic profile that hints at the chili to come. The oat malt adds a soft, creamy undertone beneath the assertive botanicals.

◐ Taste

The palate enters with pronounced salty licorice sweetness, coating fully across the tongue. Spice builds through the mid-palate—isot and black pepper lay down a peppery base before habanero heat creeps in with a slow, lingering burn. Rich roasted character and subtle dark fruit notes ground the intensity, while 65 IBU of bitterness provides structure without dominating the sweet-spice interplay.

◑ Finish

The finish is long and evolving, with habanero warmth persisting on the palate and building slightly over time. Residual licorice sweetness and a gentle roasted dryness linger into the aftertaste, never becoming harsh despite the 10% ABV presence.
