Our latest King Snake variant is a bold one. All those roasty and chocolatey notes we've come to love are present in Desert King Snake. We're getting rich notes of fudge, more specifically, those Russel Stover truffles with the vanilla mousse filling. Luxurious mouthfeel. The barrel character does not take a back seat on this one. The 14 month nap in Buffalo Trace rye barrels helps strike a beautiful balance with assistance from Ugandan vanilla and Peruvian cacao adjuncts. You'll want to let this one warm up, once you do you'll be welcomed into a flavor dimension you won't soon forget.

12oz dull orange waxed bottle pours with a thick deep dark black colored body that supports virtually no head but rather a tiny ring of off white bubbles. The aroma offers up booze infused fudge, chocolate pudding, fresh caramel chocolate candy bar and then an echo of highly roasted maltiness. The taste delivers slick smooth velvety rich chocolate fudge to dark chocolate yum to chocolate pudding with two tiny marshmallows in it. To midway a sliver of dark roasted malts is noticed as the modest booziness ratchets up a bit. The barrel treatment is light and just noticeable at the edge of the experience and luckily it stays out of the way of this brilliant base beer. A few more sips and a thin mesa of sweet candy like kettle caramelization is noticed well beneath the delicious chocolate onslaught. Great sipper. Wow! Please do this again.
