Pretty good chocolate flavor on this with a small amount of spiciness

Chocolatey. Almost as good as Maple Mac KBS.

KBS rarely disappoints. Add a rich chocolate and a smoky chili pepper - this is almost as good as it gets. You still have some of the coffee coming through. The only thing that could make this better is a touch of cinnamon. Also love the thick mouthfeel.

That’s a spicy KBS! Well, not too spicy, but delicious nonetheless

Very nicely done. Kissed with sweetness and slight spice. Not over done. This is harmony not a hostile take over

I am a huge fan of KBS and have been for the entire eleven years I have been a follower of Craft Beer, and the rating on this is just too low. I think people have a tendency to be overly critical of KBS variants. The spiciness is mild, the chocolate rich.

Not that spicy but enough to cut into chocolatey sweetness

Mild hint of spice, otherwise solid stout and sneaky.

Not really spicy at all. Wouldn’t call it a Mole either. More like regular KBS. Good none the less, just not what I was expecting based on label.

It's Mexican hot chocolate esque. It's not spicy enough to check that box ✅.

Not really spicy just okay. The espresso one is the only variant I like. The original is tough to beat.

Not spicy at all. If you’re gonna say it’s spicy at least put some heat into it! 💨

Great flavor with this one. It had a little bit of spice all the way through. Thick and heavy just as I like it.

A silky thick chocolaty coffee malt beauty with notable chili pepper bite. The whisky barrel seems to marry seamlessly with the spiciness. Beautiful smooth feel.

Heavy, dark, boozy, deep roastiness, sweet, taste the chocolate in the after mellowness, the earthiness and mild spice could be the mole attempt which is good and not overdone.

A solid chocolate chili stout but there could have been more chili to it.

Sniff test is chocolate. Taste is thin with flavors of chocolate and chili peppers.

My favorite stout is a chocolate chili pepper stout and this doesn’t disappoint. A little sweet. I don’t think I could handle another 10oz due to the sweet. But this spicy imperial stout hits the right notes.

Surprisingly dry, which is odd because regular KBS is super sweet. Not much chocolate, but I am getting the chilies.

Lively spiciness and sturdy, sweet chocolate. Bottled the day after Christmas.

Mostly chocolate with some spice, coffee is there, but not as prominent as one would expect. #SpicySunday Thanks Micah N.
