Ernest (4481), Boulder, Colorado, USA Aug 25, 2004 Draught. Body is hazy dark yellow. Aroma is lightly malty (cookie), with notes of lemon, pine needles, and chile pepper. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Medium body, velvety texture, lively carbonation, moderately hot. Finally a chile beer that isn’t abhorrent...this is head and shoulders above the vegetal and swill-like attempts from Cave Creek and Coopersmiths, to name a few.
