Thin head with good carbonation. Sweet honey like aroma with some fruity white grape, spices, a hint of cocoa and an aroma that I am familiar with but just can’t place at the moment. Appearance is a hazy dirty orange. Slighty flat in the mouth and quite sweet. More honey and grapes and cocoa. Light alcohol presence and warming and a pretty smooth and light to medium bodied palate. Some spices late swallow and maybe a bit of heat from the chili peppers. Finishes clean and sweet. As usual, Dogfish Head comes up with the wacky, off-the-wall brews. This one is not too bad though.

Jan 5, 2010 Poured a slightly hazy golden color with a thin white head. Aroma is spicy, I can definitely smell a little chili, but I’m getting no chocolate at all. Mainly honey. Flavor is mostly sweet from the honey, again, no chocolate. Pretty disappointing after reading the label.

Jan 3, 2010 Thanks to thirdeye11 for sharing this bottle. Pours golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is lots of fruit, but not the chocolate I was expecting. The taste is also mainly fruit with mango and pear. Maybe a little cocoa, but not very much if any at all. Finishes very dry.

Dec 30, 2009 Thin, cloudy orange appearance. Fine white, stout-like head. Aroma of spices and chiles. Flavor lightly sweet, incredibly pleasant, of light chile and hints of cacao. Very fun and tasty! Quick, clean, uniquely flavored finish. Definitely worth the try and easy to drink 750ml on your own on a relaxing evening while snowed in.

Dec 17, 2009 Can smell the chile spice, nice appearance. This has a good flavor. Don’t notice the cocoa much, but the chile is very evident. Flavor is sweet but not heavy. Pretty tasty.

Dec 15, 2009 Bottle. Brown pour with vigorous tan head. Slight cocoa, spices and etoh flavor, definitely a DFH concoction. Chilies don’t make it, IMO.
