Bottle from Beers Of Europe. This one is 4.5%. Appearance - amber and lively on opening. Then the head fizzed frantically before dying completely. Nose - light green chilli and mainly caramel. Taste - caramel again and the chilli builds down the glass. Palate - close to medium bodied, slightly sweet but the chilli dries it a little. Overall - better than I'd expected.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Appearance - deep brown with no head and virtually no carbonation. Nose - strawberry and molasses. Taste - sweet malt and red fruit again. Palate - sweet and close to medium bodied. Cloying and lacking in freshness. Overall - a bit sweet and flat. Not what I was expecting.

Bottle bought at Eastbourne Beer Festival, October 2017. Drunk about 3 months out of date. Thankfully, it is not that spciy. Interesting yeasty, sour smell. Murky brown colour. Not a huge amuont of taste, more about the palate which is a mix of sweet and spicy. Not great but hey did not have high hopes! As with all chilli beers though, it gets old kinda quick...500ml bottle is a challenge

500ml bottle @ monthly tasting, Chez Sophie, Jan 19. Thanks Jeremy for bringing this. Clear gold, small bubbly ring which recedes with no lacing. Aroma greets you with green pepper / green japapeno from a dirty kebab shop, pickled green chilis. Taste continues along these lines. Assumed it would be fiery, but it’s not. Can't see myself willingly revisiting this.

500ml bottle, just in date 'Fire In The Hole' 4.9% Chilli Beer. from a presentation pack and taken by me to the Jan 2019 Shrewsbury Beer Exchange Group meeting and shared between five of us. Clear golden body, wispy white head. Habanero peppers in the aroma, but more like a lime pickle in flavour; not as hot as anticipated, mild fire in the aftertaste.

500ml bottle from Beers of Europe. Deep orangey golden colour, white foamy head that gradually dissipates away and aroma of fruity cooked apples, spices. Taste is tart apple, peppery, vegetal, chilli spice heat. Medium bodied, medium carbonation, dry lingering hot chilli at the finish. OK.

4/10/2018. Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours a quite attractive deep amber with an average sized off-white head. Aroma of malt, caramel, rotting fruit, rusty nails and cough drops. Medium sweetness, light bitterness. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Label says it's a beer for the serious beer lover. Don't think so.
