Coveted Hatch chilies grown in and around New Mexico’s Hatch Valley made their way to Ashburn, VA to give this mellow amber lager a pleasing lingering warmth.

Draft at the brewery. Poured a hazy orange color with a wispy head. Aroma has some light green peppers, with just a touch of heat on it. Flavor is green chillies, with just a kiss of heat in it. Actually really nice for a hot pepper beer.
