The Cousins, is a spiced porter inspired by oth pop-culture and Mexican cooking. Recall the Salamanca brother of Breaking Bad? This would be their beer, we are sure. Starting with a full bodied brown porter, we cook up a decadent brew with starthistle honey, cacao, cinnamon and no less than 4 chilis (Pasilla, Serrano, Chipotle and Habanero). At this point The Cousins is getting a little heated so we smooth it out with Madagascar Vanilla just before kegging. The flavors fold into each other nicely, each layer yielding to the next and ultimately preparing you for another sip of delicious strong ale.
