Black Mountain, Crazy Ed's Chili Beer (USA) 
"Crazy Ed's Original Cave Creek Chili Beer", to give it its full name, is a gimmicky beer with a whole Jalapeno in the bottle. It pours a pale yellow colour with almost no head. On the nose there's a strong aroma of bell pepper / capiscum that is pungently green and vegetal. On the palate it basically just like drinking a jug of water, whilst being blasted by chili heat that burns as much as you'd expect. I can detect no hops, malt or fermentation character; just chili. I wasn't sure what to expect from this - how subtle or otherwise the chili might be - but if there's a good base beer in there, the chili has destroyed it. A novelty. 4.5% ABV, 33cl, �1.79, Beersofeurope, Peckhams, . | |
