Ska Mole Stout:
Hello all, and welcome to yet another review of a canned beer but to avoid the pitfalls of growing stagnant lets look a Mexican/non-Mexican beer.  Ska Brewing (yet another Colorado brewery) is a nice little niche brewery that started brewing beer back in the mid 90’s by two under age guys who wanted to drink more.  Not a bad reason to start brewing if you ask me.  So today we look at Ska’s seasonal stout Mole Stout a beer that is well, odd.  Mole sauce is that funky sauce that can taste like spicy cocoa that goes on a variety of dishes in the Mexican cuisine and to make a beer with it is a nice adventurous attempt.  The beer pours a black midnight color with a bit of chocolate colored head that dissipates quickly and a nose of spicy cocoa.  The beer’s taste is very uniform with a cinnamon-chocolate flavor that carries an undertone of a traditional stout and a clean aftertaste that has a very spicy hint that is strong enough to remind you to take another sip.  A very good beer, perfect for a cold night like this and it’s not so heavy that you can’t enjoy it with a meal (it’s only 5.5% ABV people, I think that it can just legally call itself a stout with that ABV).  It’s floating out there for your winter drinking enjoyment so locate it and drink up. Cheers.
