Brewer: Black Mountain Brewing Company
Beer: Crazy Ed's Original Cave Creek Chili Beer
Style: Chili Beer
abv: 4.2%
Bottle from the store. The holy grail of crappy beers; its ratebeer.com rating is 1.14 out of 5. There's a chili pepper floating in the bottle which I poured with the beer, like a real man. And then I tried it.
Holy crap! The aromas and flavors are one-dimensional and strong. That dimension is jalapeno pepper. I like jalapeno pepper, and, good lord, I like this beer (or at least I don't hate it and would drink it again). If you think about it, pepper in a beer is hardly different from coriander in a beer, just a different spice with a different flavor. If you like chili peppers, ignore the anti-hype and grab a six pack of this stuff.
