Pulling this from the advent submission, and using my Berliner instead. I'm thinking most people would enjoy the Berliner more - most of people who have tried the stout found it too spicy.

Yeah this is BS! Nobody wants a Berliner in December. Bring on the spiced stout :)

"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

I'll have a few bottles of this with me at the exchange. Not enough to go around, but if someone really wanted to try it, let me know.

Thanks fellas. Overall I'm happy with it, but do find it has more spice than I'd like. If I brewed it again, I'd probably try half the amount of cayenne to see how that tastes.
