Pours brownish with a frothy creme colored head. Aroma of spiced malt. Taste has peppery malt, hints of hops, lemongrass. Palate has lingering cracked pepper notes on the mouth, as well as dark, dank malt. Downright weird.

12 ounce bottle. Amber orange color. Large frothy beige head. Earthy, bready malt aroma. Sweet grainy malt flavor upfront. Sticky mouthfeel. Mild heat from chilies in middle. Brief sweet finish.

12 oz can my wife found in her AirBnB. Score! Light amber body, fizzy head, active carbonation. Fruity aroma, malty notes. Malt takes over in the taste, mildly sweet, caramel. Chilis add a spicy snap at the finish. Better than expected.

Can. Slightly darker than pale, looks like cream soda. Nice head. Taste is Ok at first then I think the peppers sneak in and give it a somewhat unique off taste. Date code is 20/20 so I don't think its that old. Can says there is some heat in it but I have yet to detect any, its mostly just vegetable pepper. Difficult in the middle. Starting to give thumbs down on this one. Considering I like all the other dos equis brews, I found this quite disappointing with all its ill ale veggy effects. Gimmie any other dos equis anyday. Yes, after having a case of 24 for $10, I must say this beer sucks moby, big giant moby. All dos equis did was chase a fad, WTF??!!

On draught at Buffalo Wild Wings.
Pours a clear amber with an inch of foam, excellent lacing.
Smells a bit veggie, some pepper, sweet, light hoppy.
The taste is of veggies, sweet in a kinda sickly way, light hoppiness, some heat from the peppers during and after the swallow.
Close to medium bodied with lightish carbonation.
Yay I'll say when I finish my glass.

On draft at Atlanta airport. Oh God where do I begin...pale straw color, thick white head, not a ton of aroma here, maybe some floral hops, hay, almost a rye note. Flavour is bitter hop extract, grass, the chili pepper kicks in at the finish, weird and spicy.
