2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Tasting at CBF. Hazy light yellow, no head. Aroma of chiles and peppers, fairly pungent. Taste like hot chiles, pretty spicy. Off-putting - a little too over the top for a chile beer.

2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Tasted 9/30 GABF weekend. Idaho Springs, CO. Mild nose compared with Coppersmiths (Ft Collins). Once again, smelled like Jalapeno Krunchers. Slight citrus note. Good pepper flavor, which I eventually added a lime to mellow it out. I guess a good example, but definitely not my favorite style.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap @ Tommyknocker Brewery. Aroma is a strong whiff of chile and lemon. Appearance shows a lifeless yellow with little carbonation and little head. Flavor is a slight citrus bite followed by a rush of pepper that tapers gently. Palate is slick. Not bad at all. Quite enjoyable; not a sickening pepper flavor like Crazy Ed’s.
