Bottle. A slightly hazy light bronze with a thin off white head body. A crazy pepper nose with some apparent heat. This pepper smell pretty much overwhelms everything else, but at least it smells fresh. Oh wow, this one is a big spicy bad boy. Just like the aroma, the heat just blows away everything else away in this otherwise thin brew. Behind, the heat, there is lightly sweet brew with notes of peanuts. Only to drink if you want the heat. I have had better pepper beers with more balance, this gimmick was obviously created just to overwhelm with spice.

This is pretty crazy. I like hot shit and I like beer, so this is a good match for me. Down the throat there is fire on the back of the throat for a good 3 minutes. Can't really say much else about it. Just a hot ass beer that people who like both beer and super hot shit, should appreciate how this was pulled off

Bottle shared with pals at club w...pretty impressed..expected it to be hell ..aroma is chiili peppers etc..tastr is a light hot beer.. my description is basic..but i would do again.. happy camper here

Well here goes.... Heat kicked in right away but cooled off fast.... Heat goes away pretty fast... Really cool idea for a beer!!! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Shared by Rhino. I’m scared. The beer smells like it’s about to whoop my ass. Hot red peppers, campfire smoke, blazing chili. Ok here goes... Hot damn! Massive palate assaulting heat intensity. I’m a medium heat guy when it comes to chili, wings, Thai food, etc. This is pretty high intensity to me. An assortment of hot peppers on a medium bodied ale. Moderate carbonation. Lingering burn. This was pretty fun. For what it is, this is done pretty well.I definitely recommend splitting the bottle several ways.

Appearance: poured with a huge head that dissipated faster than I have ever seen a head dissipate, head is totally gone in 30 seconds, very hazy, golden in color Aroma: chili, jalapeño, smells very spicy, I like the smell Taste: very spicy, some grain, jalapeño Palate: moderate to high c02 burn, leaves a very spicy burn on the back of your throat Overall: this is a fun beer to try, it’s very different which I like, I’m wondering if the head disappeared so fast because of my glass, can’t get another bottle of this around here either I don’t think, not a session beer due to the heat ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Hot pepper and ash aroma. Ok, I’m not sure I really want to drink this. Crystal clear amber, minimal head. Holy shit, what have I done! G*d damn that burns. I don’t think that I can finish the 12 oz. bottle.It’s delicious, but unpleasant otherwise. I can feel all the arteries and veins from my neck up dilating. Flavor is cayenne and habanero. Undrinkable (for me) without a milk chaser. With milk though, it becomes increasingly tolerable and enjoyable.

I suppose I had to enter a 100th Colorado rate sooner or later. Thanks to Sam for the bottle, I had been saving it for when I had guests... alas this is now in Iowa so guests will no longer be impressed with my hop pepper whale.

This stuff pours really hazy and blonde, the rise and fall of the head is akin to soda pop & there are lots of floaties, one of them looks like a pepper seed, I sort of hope it is a pepper seed, but I don’t really think it is.

The aroma is pretty awesome, just way way pepper forward like a whole pile of freshly chopped hop peppers. One noted, but enjoyable.

Well, that’s some silly ass beer right there. I can see some folks really enjoying this and I’ll say it’s even from my wussy standards enjoyable. It starts off with a whole bunch of Jalapeño & Habanero flavor, then the heat builds to what I would describe as just below a painful level. Certainly some nice Serrano notes, plenty of intense heat... I’m really not sure I’ll be finishing the bottle... this is much more of an "experience" beer than something nice to drink.

My face is all red and stuff.

Pours an orange color. Smells of a variety of peppers with a hint of spiciness. The aroma is almost of pizza. Taste is mostly heat but with a finish of underlining veggies and chili. It is obviously hot but with a good flavor. I had to eat something with it though. Perhaps it would be used best to cook with. Not really a session brew.

Hazedish gold color,depends if you pour it all probably making it pretty hazy. Aroma is hot pepper/roasted or grilled pepper.Fairly strong. Taste is smooth,slickish easy drinking at first then you get hit with some pepper vegetale fruit-/floral like almost and heat,some mild mouth burn and sticks in the throat with a nice mellow burn. Lingering mouth/tounge heat-cinnomon numbingness.HOt but I was almost expecting hotter but its the perfect hot to me. NOt the dance /almost pee your pants kind of heat. Pretty hot for weinies.You may like it if you like some heat. I enjoyed it but wouldnt do more than one session of it really like any other pepper beer.
