About

Mexicake from Tempest Brewing Company is an ambitious Imperial Stout from Scotland, inspired by Mexican cuisine and culture. This jet-black beer is enriched with fresh vanilla beans, quality cocoa, Ceylon cinnamon and chipotle peppers, creating a complex flavour experience. The nose reveals roasty malt with hints of vanilla and cinnamon. On the palate, sweet coffee-like notes emerge alongside chocolate, complemented by the warmth of Mexican spices and a subtle chilli pepper bite. The finish remains dry and bitter, with a pleasant alcoholic warmth befitting the 11.8% ABV. This is a full-bodied, creamy stout with a refined balance between sweet and spicy—ideal for those willing to venture into unconventional flavour territories.
