This beer is on tap at a local bar:




Any clue if it is:
http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/sierra-nevada-hellraiser-chocolate-chili-imperial-stout/118603/

Or

http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/sierra-nevada-chocolate-chili-stout/416211/

Or if the second one is really just the first. I did notice that the Torpedo room tended to use description on the menu rather than actual names of beers.

Go with the latter...

I’m honestly not sure what the difference really is, but when Sierra Nevada served Hellraiser previously, they pretty clearly had it labeled as such. I’ve had the Chocolate Chili Stout recently and it’s at least branded differently.

?
Both say cocoa and chili, and the abv listed is in between.
I put mine on the first one when I had just "chocolate chili stout" but the other option wasn’t there then, and I didn’t think it warranted a new entry.

Presumed you sampled it. How brooding was it? Emo like or simply scowling at you?

I recognize that app. The most expensive place in your town too?

Definitely not the cheapest. Rivals another place in town that gets limited FL releases and charges crazy prices. I don’t even want to publicly admit how many points I have either.

I just got a 24 oz bottle from Costco in a sampler 4 pack. Be interested in which it is this current batch.

Was it shitty? Was there no pepper heat? I’d say it’s the first one.

Upon investigation, this is the tap handle...
