Had on-tap at Socorro Springs. Also, goes by Eddyline Innaglo Red Chile Porter, at the establishment in Colorado.

A - Pours a dark brown and served with a one-finger tan head. Retention was alright and a thin ring of bubbles survived for most of the meal. Left behind a few splotches of lacing.

S - There really wasn't much here other than the typical roasted malt associated with porters and a few hints of cherry.

T - Roasted malt upfront. The body had a nice balance a litttle bit of cherry flavor. Red chile flavors come through as the beer passes over the back of the tongue and really kick in in the finish to leave a spicy burning sensation on the back of the tongue.

M - Medium bodied with adequate carbonation. I little lighter bodied than I prefer my porters, but it worked pretty well wit the chile flavor.

Certainly a unique beer - I've never heard of a red chile porter before! In the end it was more of a middle-of-the-road brew with some red chile flavor thrown in. Although the finish was a it spicy for my tastes, I appreciate the effort and might consider having it now and again as a novelty beer as long as the Springs stays in business (I hear they are trying to sell).
