Xöko Bomb

A special seasonal variation on one of our most beloved beers, Öko Bomb, Xöko Bomb draws inspiration from Xocolatl—the original Mexican Hot Chocolate.

We started with Ancho chile peppers we grew on FP Farm and smoked over FP Ranch oak. When we asked our friend and neighbor Mike at Twenty-Four Blackbirds for some freshly roasted cacao nibs, he suggested adding Oaxacan chiles he grew at his cacao and orchid farm in Goleta. Those ingredients came together with Imperial Stout that we aged for three years in Willett Sour Rye Whiskey barrels, developing a viscous body and subtle spirit character, before blending with fresh Russian Imperial Stout. Warming cinnamon and vanilla bring the layers together, balancing bold chocolate with chile and spice for a decadent, blissful finish.  

45 cases produced.

Sensory notes:

• Obsidian to onyx in color
• Flavors of bold chocolate, Oaxacan chiles, warming cinnamon, and a light spirit character from Rye Barrels
• Rich, viscous body
• Decadent, warming, and blissful finish
