Mexican Hot Chocolate Milk Stout
Rich cocoa and sweet vanilla open the sip, a subtle hint of chili adds a gentle warmth, and a roasted malt character runs underneath, all in a velvety texture. It starts from Left Hand's creamy Milk Stout, with cocoa powder, chili powder and vanilla in the recipe, 6.0 % ABV, and is canned for October through December.
