After seeing this beer on the various online communities, once I found it in store, I knew I had to try it. And I'm glad I did! First off, it's pronounced 'SHO-CO-VAY-ZA'. This is a flavor packed beer. You can taste most of the advertised: cocoa, coffee, peppers, vanilla, and nutmeg. It definitely has a great 'winter holidays' flavor to it. Great beer for a cold night.
