Bottle thanks to Leighton.... It pours hazy golden amber with a small white head. The nose is icing sugar, toast, vegetal notes, chilli and capsicum. The taste chilli pepper, light citrus, icing sugar, dull bitterness and a good burn in the back of the throat. Medium body and fine carbonation. Not much too it, but its a decent chilli beer as those things go.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 bytemesis (1493) - Sunnyvale, California, USA - JUN 7, 2013
Bottle from KerenMK - thanks! Pours clear light amber with a small white head and good lacing. Aroma is corn, pine, hay. Flavor starts the same, lightly sweet. My first few sips had a cleaning fluid finish. Every swallow irritated my throat and had notes of chili peppers. I didn’t realize until afterwards that this was a chili beer :). Unfortunately I got more of the irritation part than any flavor profile or mouth heat.

21st May 2013 ’Paul takes a brown shower’ tasting at Bruce’s pad. Thanks to Leighton. Very hazy gold beer, little white head. Light palate, a little soft. Light sweet dry malt which contrasts with the fairly warm chilli. Touch of fruit. Dry finish. Inoffensive.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 Leighton (7183) - London, ENGLAND - MAY 21, 2013
Bottle shared at Bruce’s, London - thanks to Tomer for trading me this one. Pours hazy gold with a fine, creamy off-white head. Nose has a lot of grapefruit and mango. Light sweet flavor, some further citrus, some toasty hay, decent pale chili heat. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. More heat in the finish. It really hits you in the throat, lots of green chili heat. Some pale malts, low bitterness, background grapefruit and other citrus. The heat is strong but not too much (at least for me, but I don’t have high tolerance for spice). Novelty beer with decent drinkability.

Bottle. Pours murky amber, white head and bubbles. Sweet fruity aroma, a little pear, a little grapefruit aroma with faint pepper. Tastes bitter and bland at first and then hot spiciness attacks the mouth. Medium body and very peppery finish. Brutal. I like it.
