    I'd have to disagree, I felt the heat was right where it should be. Both the grapefruit and the habanero helped the beer in my opinion. You could have gotten a hotter batch than I did though.

    That's possible, although I hope their QC doesn't allow for too much variance. And I do love heat (as I douse my chicken with Tabasco and some hot Granny's Homemade Mustard. On a side note, I have purchased more grapefruit since my original post. Good beer.

    Yea, I don't think it would vary too much. I know the faster you drink the more intense the heat gets haha. The grapefruit is a good summer go to, despite the price.

    I don't know. I guess I'm kinda done with this one.

    Just picked up a six pack in NJ. Very pricy, $15 a six pack. I had this beer when in San Diego and could not pass up a chance to have some more. I liked it better on draft at the brewery; however, a interesting and tasty brew!

    Six packs of cans were 12.99 in VT yesterday. They also had it for growler fills but ran out over the weekend.

    went to a beer tasting in march with several breweries there, ballast point had grapefruit and habenaro on tap, had the grapefruit. was very tasty, however, I didn't try habanero. people said was wee bit too spicey. I should have tried it.
