Angeloregon (2002), Portland, Oregon, USA Aug 16, 2008 Sampled at Calapooia in Albany, OR--Poured a hazy golden-straw body with a medium fluffy white head. Mad chili nose featuring a variety of spicy chili notes and some malt graininess. Flavor was sharp and spicy from the get-go. Fiery burn down the gullet and lingering pepper heat down the back of the throat. Very peppery even for a pepper beer. Not a beer I could sit and drink a lot of, but very interesting and would probably be a great beer to cook with.

jake65 (1274), Meridian, Idaho, USA Feb 13, 2008 Draft @ KLCC Microbrew Festival: Pours an unassuming clear copper with a small head. Nose is full of spicey, peppery aromas. Ahhh, then the taste. A wonderful blend of the aforementioned peppers followed by immediate heartburn. I wanted to try this just to say that I did and well, I did. jcwattsrugger (4045), Florida and, New Jersey, USA Oct 13, 2007 on tap-pours a thin white head and yellow/gold color. Aroma is chili.
