Notes

Soaked the cocoa, pepper, cinnamon, vanilla and oak in 2 cups of white tequila for 7 days. After 7 days I strained the tincture and added the liquid to the secondary. After adding, let the beer sit in the secondary for 4 weeks.

This beer one third place in the 2022 Terry Sarne Memorial Brew Ha Ha in Duluth MN.
