Monstruous Mexican Cake is definitely one of the porkier creations of the French Piggy Brewing Company. The guys from Liverdun are enthusiastic fans of the exuberant way of life of pigs and have made the excessive enjoyment of the bristly fellows a model for their beers.
Monstruous Mexican Cake is a beer that would delight every domestic pig and that also wraps us around our fingers with its malty aroma. The powerful Imperial Stout is made with unimaginable quantities of hand-picked malts and has a few extras up its sleeve: Coffee, vanilla, cocoa and allspice make beer a sweet sin and almost make beer a full meal.
The beer-like dessert with a Mexican touch is the color of freshly brewed black coffee in the glass and also smells like this: strong roasted aromas mix in the nose with the aroma of oven-warm chocolate cake. Vanilla, hot pepper, some wood and a touch of leather complete the olfactory profile and make you excited about the first sip. This reveals a voluminous body with a creamy mouthfeel. Intense aromas of cocoa chips, vanilla, espresso, roasted malt and melted chocolate spread like a warm blanket on the tongue. Fine smoky notes and a pointed chili spiciness give Monstruous Mexican Cake that certain something.
