Spiteful Brewing Malevolence Chocolate Caliente Russian Imperial Stout Released

Spiteful Brewing Malevolence: Chocolate Caliente Russian Imperial Stout releases this week.

The base beer is of course a Russian imperial stout (Malevolence), made even more bold with chili flakes, Aleppo peppers, cacao nibs, cinnamon, and vanilla beans. Inspired by Mexican hot chocolate.

“It’s a big, viscous beer. The sweetness of the base beer makes a nice canvas for the additional spices and ingredients,” said Spiteful co-founder Jason Klein. Spiteful’s original Malevolence Russian Imperial Stout serves as the base beer for the spicy iteration.

Spiteful Brewing Malevolence Chocolate Caliente Russian Imperial Stout is available across Chicago in 22oz bottles.

Availability: 22oz Bottles
