3.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
On tap at the Houston Flying Saucer a few weeks back. Deep brown-black with a foamy chocolate-brown head. The beer opens medium sweet and finishes with a tingly pepper spiciness. It’s a little spicy, but definitely not too hot or overwhelming. A fun experiment and another tasty brew from (512).

On tap. Pours with a deep black hued body with a lasting, deep tan head. Aromas are of strong and dark chocolate, raisins, light heat, earthy, fudge and mild esters. Sipping the beer gives you a mild nasal/back of the throat burn. Flavors are of dry roast, chocolate, bready malt, plums, grainy, and some lactose character. Fuller bodied, lower carbonation.

Growler from D&Q. Pours pitch black with a large mocha colored head. Smells sweet, hints of chocolate with a very slight tingle of spiciness. Taste has hints of sweet chocolate at the front end and then moves to a tingling spiciness at the back end. Light-to-medium bodied with a wet, smooth texture and incredibly soft mouth-carbonation, (512) Cascabel Cream Stout finishes with a bit of pepper heat in the back of the throat and a tingle on the lips.

Draft at the gingerman Plano. Pours black with a thin tan head. The aromas are chilli peppers, coffee, chocolate. The mouthfeel is dry roasty and bitter with a spicy pepperiness in the end. Very nice beer! Cheers!
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
(Draught) Pours a black body with a small creamy tan head. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malt, chilies, caramel, vanilla, and lactose. Flavor of chocolate, ash, raisins, roasted peppers, and roasted malt.
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
Near black with a small tan head. Aroma of roast, chocolate, and roasted sweet and hot peppers. Taste is rich chocolate and roasted malt, a little fruit, and mild heat. An excellent balance, there’s enough pepper to taste and get a touch of heat, without the overkill of peppers that brewers often use. Medium-full bodied and silky. This, like Texas Ranger, is one of the few pepper beers that make me want more than one in a sitting. Excellent.

On Tap- Pour is dark brown with light head..Aroma is Chocolate and Malts and a hints of sweetness, Taste is Bold with chocolate and roasted malts...I didn’t catch the Spice until after 8oz of it. The spice is light and perfectly balanced that lingers in the back of the throat and palate. A perfect Stout from (512)

Damn good beer. But best in small quantities. I started feeling the lingering pepper heat after maybe 8 ounces. Overall smooth and crisp with tons of coffee, spice and creamy Notes.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Pours very dark brown with minimal head. Nice roasty malt flavor with good chile flavor and a small amount of burn on the finish. Interesting.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
On tap at Petrol Station. Pours black with a brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of roasted malt and light coffee with a nice backing creaminess. Flavor begins with a bit of sweet chocolate and roasted malts but finished slightly weak with a hint of roast and a bit of heat that lasts.
