Mar 23, 2009 Cask, Leicester 09. Headless straw wafting with succulent fresh sliced green chilli at the expense of everything else. Nibble of countering biscuit coming through from the base beer (Atomic Strike); faultless natural chilli flavour; afterburn like a VERY spicy ginger beer. Not the hottest English chilli beer I’ve had, that honour belongs to Fallen Angel Black Death, but still MEDIUM FUCKING SPICY. Jesus. Hold on, some leafy green and citrus aroma mingled with eye-watering chopping board heat. Vindaloo burn on the lips for minutes afterwards. I admit the trough got some of this, not because it was revolting or undrinkable, but because there was 214 other beers on offer and I’m already well-acquainted with the flavour of raw green chillies. A tipper, but a good one.

Mar 18, 2009 Cask conditioned gravity dispense Leicester BF. The future is chilis. This beer is just so delicious it’s ridiculous. The chil in the aroma and flavour are absolutely spot on. None of that stupid heat of Cave Creek; just a perfect accompaniment to what is typically a great Atomic base golden beer. Other brewers have tried chili beers. This is a serious benchmark.
