    I'll look around my spots and pick you up some if I can find it. I won't be trying it, sounds too hot for me!

    From one Scott to another, please, for the love of puppies, don't grab this beer. Your tastebuds will thank you repeatedly.

    I'm also ISO this one for a buddy, after the OP is taken care of first, of course. I can meet IP if that works anywhere between Toledo and findlay or even Lima.

    I wonder if they made the same recipe this year or if they toned it down. Taking it down a notch would make it a good beer IMO. Ended up finishing a bottle last year with my brother, great flavor on the first sip, but all explosive heat after that. Worst heartburn I have ever had. Would probably try again this year, but I'd add most of it to a batch a chili.

    I personally think other ambitious craft drinkers around the country should have the chance to try it if they desire. It's one of those novelty beers that would be cool to see make a splash on the national craft scene.

    Would make for a good challenge on the show Heat Seekers :wink:

    How? I love spicy food and only got 2 sips in of last years batch. Heard they did tone it down this year. Grabbed a bottle tonight but last years is still on my taste buds. This is such an impressive beer, amazingly ambitious.

    Ps-amazing overnight chicken marinade

    I don't know, I would never try to drink that much of it ever again. I still feel the burn in my throat every time I think about the beer. Good luck on this year's bottle. It would make a good marinade for some spicy chicken, or how about using it in beer batter?... Hmmm...

    It is toned down some - very peppery heat and not as much burn as last time. Still very hot!

    Did everyone get some here that was looking? Was out tonight and saw some yet. If anyone is still ISO send me a bm. @sweatervest27 @Doodler
