A light English bitter style makes this beer an easy drinker, infused with Anaheim and Ancho chili peppers. All the flavor of chilies with no heat. Great for any palate.

I kind of like this beer - a fairly clean german lager, with a decent dose of hops, and a lot of natural pepper flavor, without a great deal of heat - granted, there isn’t much to the beer outside of the peppers, but that odd vegetal character you get in a lot of pepper beer is absent - it’s just clean, drinkable, and good with food - not bad.

tap at the brewpub - Pours yellow with a small white head. It smells like chili peppers. Shocking, isn’t it? A chili beer that smells like chilis. It also tastes like, duh, chilis. The beer itself is a light flavored and bodied brew and the chili flavors really dominate it though manage not to be completely overwhelming. It’s not my thing, but it still manages to beat the hell out of Cave Creek.

Sample at the brewpub. This brew is a hazy dark amber-orange color with a minimal white head that burns away to nothing quickly. Spotty lacing. Chili pepper aroma with a sweet malt undertone. Light-bodied and peppery throughout, with a touch of underlying sweetness. The finish is hot peppers. Thanks to Cave Creek I’ll never be able to try a beer like this without some trepidation, but still it was not very enjoyable.

A hazy dark yellow beer wtih a small disappearing white head. The aroma is sweet malty with distinct notes of chili. In the flavor the chili is very powerful with sweet malt and oranges in the background, but the body is a little thin.

Golden colour with no head and tiny bubbles rising from the bottom and sides of the glass. The first thing noticeable in the aroma is fresh anaheim chilies. In addition to the strong chili aroma is a subtle hop smell. The taste is light-bodied; Subtle chili flavour and a very mellow maltiness define this beer. This one could be classified as a light beer, but it had a pretty nice body for the summer. This was very different from the Cave Creek Chili Beer, but in a much better way! Fun to try, and very happy to have that experience. Worth a shot if you are in Denver! Overall, better than the Cave Creek, but most of you guys will probably still hate it! I had this on tap at the brewpub in Denver, Colorado on 12-August-2003.
