Bottle dated 2/13/14, no ABV info listed nor found on the brewery's web site or Facebook page.

Nice, partly cloudy, pale yellow body with lively carbonation and a thick, frothy, white head. Aroma comes across slightly spicy and fruity; berries, bananas, cloves. Spicy, peppery flavor right off the bat; fiery and tongue tingling tones that last from start to finish of the taste. Medium bodied; soft and smooth along the palate; dry finish.

Subsequent sips revealed more fruit-like flavors riding beneath the peppery heat, adding some interesting complexity to the taste. There is a gentle yet full feeling to the beer with its carbonation that adds more depth to its overall appeal. I can't find any information on what kind of chili peppers were used in this, but rest assured that if a spicy chili beer is what you're looking for, you'll get a nice dose of chili warmth and bite with this offering.

Beer pouts a very light straw color with a slight white head. Beer is absolutely clear.

Aroma is of green chilies, if I was blindfolded I would swear someone had just opened a can of green chilies under my nose. I don't pick up any other hint that it could be a beer.

Beer starts off a little sweet and then wham! All chilies in the finish. Crisp and green with some heat at the end. It really tastes like you just bit into a green chili.

Light, which works well with the beer.

If the goal of this beer was to have it taste like a green chili then mission accomplished! That being said it is not really something I would want to have more than one of.
