Our beloved behemoth of a stout
A journey into ancient indulgence
Xocolatl World Wide Stout pays homage to the ancient Aztec drink that gave chocolate its earliest roots. This Imperial Stout is conditioned on roasted cocoa nibs, whole Madagascar vanilla beans, cinnamon, and a carefully selected blend of Cobanero and black Urfa chilis. Notes of rich chocolate and vanilla meld with a complex blend of earthy, fruity, and gently spicy chilis resulting in a singular tipple to warm the soul.
Since 1999, World Wide Stout has been a cult favorite of stout afficionados. The first batch was conceptualized to be the strongest beer in the world at its inception, and that same boundary-pushing spirit lives on in this year's iteration of the beloved brew.
