Spice aroma. Small beige head. Black with a spicy cinnamon flavour. Crisp and dry slightly bitter finish.

wow! Chai beer! with a little milk and ice we’d have a latte... great chai aroma and amazing chai flavor. I had no idea this was possible - a really nice suprise.

On tap poured a dark black color with a nice tan head. Aroma was spicy tea with some chocolate and roast. Flavor was like drinking a chocolate tea with heavy chai spices. Not bad.

Blackish brown with a reddish brown head. Aroma is faintly spiced chai, but not particularly prominent. Taste is somewhat more reminiscent of pumpkin spices than chai, but with a heavy addition of ginger. Overall, a bit watery and insubstantial, but not bad.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Served warm from the cask. Lots of chai in the aroma, weird tea-milky coconut-chocolate (mounds). Opaque brown with short light brown head. Dark chocolate coconut and chai tea, ginger/coffee. super smooth, light liquid, bitter roast finish. A nice idea, fun while it was novel; a bit tiresome by the end of the pint.
