Cave Creek Chili Beer

Brewed by Cervecería Mexicana
Style: Spice/Herb/Vegetable
Tecate, Mexico

Bottle. I suppose it delivers what it promises: beer with a chili flavor. Not exactly my flavor of choice. One bottle should last you a lifetime.

I had one of these a year ago or so out of the bottle before I drank decent beers, and actually finished it... Wow, have my tastes changed. this was easily one of the worst beers I’ve ever had. Almost flat, smells like pickled jalapeno juice, and rancid skunkiness of a degree i’ve never experienced. Drank about 4 sips and couldn’t have any more. Definite spiciness in the back of the throat, and that was the best part of the beer. Terrible, watery, and how are they still in business?

Not as bad as I was expecting. I had Rio Grande Chile beer which was awful. This wasn’t good, but the spice was kind of interesting. Hard to drink a whole beer though. Rather pale and thin too.

a few extra overall points because the pepper in the bottle is cool. Otherwise everything is pepper Like drinking hot pepper juice without the vinegar.

far from what i define as beer still turned out to be some fun. not much of a smell other than a little of of chili pepper. the taste starts out sweet but salty, kinda like biting a raw green pepper. swalow and get a spicy sweet finish. kinda like the spicy taste hides till the last second. the fact there was no carbonation really hurts this beer. not a bad beer if you like a weird change.

I got this beer and discovered how a skunk smells, just rank. As far as flavor goes if you want something like this just pour pepper juice into a bottle of Budweiser and then piss in it, you’ll be pretty close.
