Poured from a bottle - hazy gold straw/honey color with minimal white head leaving scant lacing. Nose smells like my socks after a day in my work boots. Taste is slightly less than stinky sweaty socks soaked in chili juice. Taste is no where near as bad as the nose.WTF? Was not expecting this sort of abomination at all. Smells like ass ,tastes like spicy ass - what the F...ing hell were they thinking with this?Awful to the Nth degree.....again WTF? This is some stinky F...ing drain pour,piss me off, I wasted my F...ing $ on this shitty beer -life is too damn short to waste on shitty beer.I can't get over the putrid smell of this ...again WTF? And to be clear I have traveled the globe and love spicy food and have also sampled Crime and Punishment which are hot AF but really good.-this is terrible.

Killer hot peppers taste without being a particular pepper or being over intense, just a nice warm to hot peppers taste. I'd love dumping a bottle of this in the kettle when making a chili or stew and let it cook in.

This one poured a hazy golden color with streaming bubbles and a white rocky head that just drops into nothing.
The smell was very peppery and spicy but had an odd off note almost like spicy butter.
The taste was great! It tasted like a wit beer on the front of the tongue and then BAM!! The pepper punch rolls across the tongue and burns as it goes down.
The mouth feel is light and watery and this beer does burn with chili infused heat.
Overall this was a very good beer and a whole lot of fun. I would caution those that do not like spicy foods because this is a very spicy beer. Kind of reminds me of my red beers I make without the tomato influence. I will be buying more bombers of this!

Yellow with a nice pepper smell. Taste is very jalapeno-chili with little beer flavor. Heat does not linger very long. It is hot, not as hot as Stone Crime or punishment though. overall an OK hot beer.
