Stopped down at my favorite craft beer joint,,Ned Kelly’s Pub to see if they got any new stouts since the lockdowns. And the first one I seen was this Mayan Mocha Stout.

Poured In a small snifter from the tap it looks dark dark brown with a darker than usual tan head, that is fairly thick. Which seems odd for a mocha stout.
Definite mocha in the nose. Along with some… Peanut butter? Or something very nutty.
Hmm. Something.. spicy in there. Like habanero spicy. I guess I shoulda known by the Mayan thing.
Ya. Baby. All kinds of things going on. Nutmeg burn. Something like sour cherries. That subtle pepper burn. All letting the stouts roast peek through.
The body is a bit more than thin, but not thick. But the carbonation is fairly high so it does feel thinner
Woooboy this beer was a surprise.. and a good one.
Take yer 5 points!
