You’ve got a bit of time to wait until you see this beer again. Cigar City Brewing’s Hunahpu Imperial Stout will make another appearance on March 8, 2014. Hunahpu, a massive imperial stout, is brewed with cocoa nibs, ancho and pasilla chilies, cinnamon, and Madagascar vanilla beans. Crazy delicious.

Hun Hunahpu’s corpse morphed into a cacao tree, his head becoming a cacao pod, which in typically awesome mythology fashion, spit upon the hand of a young maiden named, Xiquic who promptly became pregnant with the hero twins. The twins would ultimately grow up to avenge their father and uncle and defeat the Dark Lords and ascend to the heavens to become the moon and sun.
