Appropriately, it’s made with cocoa nibs and vanilla beans added during the beer brewing process.

Medium carbonation and medium-plus body with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy/sticky, and lightly resinous/rindy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Light-moderate dryness from bitterness, increasing through the glass. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of citrus/fruity/tropical hops, lactose, and moderate dark/bready malt flavors with an awesome malt/bitterness balance, and zero lingering hop astringency after the finish. Lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, peach, pineapple, apricot, mango, melon, papaya, lemon/orange peel, citrus rind, pepper, pine, honey, light caramel, lightly toasted bread, and herbal/floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Light-moderate pine, citrus peel, grassy, spicy bitterness on the finish. Taste of big grapefruit, tangerine, peach, pineapple, apricot, mango, melon, papaya, lemon zest, orange peel, citrus rind, light pepper, pine, honey, light caramel, lightly toasted bread, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness.
