    Just had the double dry hopped. It was a peach/mango bomb to the nose. Absolutely incredible and on my must go to brewery list. Good thing I have a wicked awesome trading partner.

    No, it's pretty good yet not as full as it used to be. Yet it's a helluva lot better than last year's batch though.

    A little back story on this one. A dozen years ago when i was expanding my beer horizons, came across a chili beer at a local beer fest. It was the famous Cave Creek Chili Beer and i loved the burn. I was desperate to get more and lo and behold, a local brewer says he personally got the recipe ( :grimacing:) and began to brew his own version (that must have been a hard one :rolling_eyes:). He called it El Lapino (a play on words on lapin which is rabbit in English and the brewery is called Le Lievre (The Hare)...get it?) I drank the hell out of it until the novelty wore off and i moved to other things. Haven`t revisited it in ages so:

    [​IMG]

    But what, what`s that in my beer? :confused:

    [​IMG]

    Yes sir, it`s a real live jalapeno pepper that was bottled with the beer, just like the good old days :wink:

    And no, i did not eat the pepper :stuck_out_tongue:

    as usual, love the scenery. a lil' uncertain about your sanity tho' - unless that's a stunt double, your snifter appears to be perilously dangling on a cliff!:stuck_out_tongue:

    I had the same reaction when I had it on tap. Don't let the color deceive you, it packs a good coffee punch.
