From the label“Dark, rich and enticing with a spicy kick, our Barrel Aged Vixen is smooth, with an inviting touch of sweetness that ends with a subtle heat. Aged in oak barrels, this brew uses a blend of roasted malts and dark cocoa nibs for a full-bodied and slightly sweet flavor. We then add an element of warmth and spice with cinnamon and chilies.”
