Dark orange with a little haze. Minimal head that disappears quickly. Wow! Big-time fresh pepper nose. Loads and loads of peppers and not much else. Very spicy hot flavor that burns on and on. Pretty crazy, and doesnt resemble any beer style i’ve ever tried.

Super duper spicy. A golden ale with a hell of a bite. Almost hard to drink because it is kind of unsettling. Probably good with spicier food as a compliment.

Tap at KLCC microbrew fest. This beer is pretty much exactly what you’d guess from the name. It smells like chili and it tastes like chili powder with a very unpleasant mouthfeel and burn. Not so high on this one.

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.

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.

on tap-pours a thin white head and yellow/gold color. Aroma is chili. Taste is mild burning chili with staying power, medium malt. Mild carbonation. Interesting.
