Rich flavor not overly spiced, nor is the Chipotle to over powering. Good golden color and a nice head.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 20, 2008 Amber. Aroma of caramel, pepper, smoke and sweet malt. Taste of smoked meat, smoked malts, peppers and mild hops. A small serving of this is okay, I’d hate to have to tackle and entire bomber. timsilvia32 (447), from Michigan now in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 17, 2008 Poured cloudy orange. Large fluffy head, diminished fairly quickly. Pretty floral hop aroma. Slight roast malt, mouthfeel and taste of a pale. There’s actually a little heat in the back of your throat at the finish, I was surprised. Clean with a bit of hops after the pepper stops lingering. Very interesting, not sure I could drink much of this. Not Rogues best effort, but at least they’re trying different things. jujubeast6000 (784), Houston, Texas, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 28, 2008 (bottle): Pours a very golden body, big creamy foamy head, diminishing. Smokey hoppy aroma, not quite cigarette but close, not ashy. Smokey, malty taste, more chipotley now. Not sweet, not hoppy. Clean aftertaste. The smoke is subtle, would go well w/bbq, or any grilled meat.

When it is fresh, on draught or from the bottle, it’s at its best--zesty and lively, with a snarl of intensity that but this is about context: have it with an appropriate food pairing. It also is vulnerable to the after effects of what I’ve had just before it, so after a Stone IPA, the Rogue tasted like soap...which wasn’t ideal. A cool, delicious (not after IPA!), quirky beer. realbama (35), Birmingham, Alabama, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Jun 20, 2008 I have had this a few times. Sometimes I think its great, other times I think its shit. It definately has a great aroma and average look. I cant put my finger on what I dont like. Perhaps I am just not that big of a chipotle fan anyways. I recommend you try this one just to say you have though. Descent. Haslinger (647), Syracuse, New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jun 17, 2008 22 ounce bottle, solid spicy aroma, not spicy like a Belgian but spicy like a Mexican meal spicy, rather appealing smell to be honest. The pour is golden with a foamy white head. The taste is immediately spicy but finishes with a rich malt taste that is totally overshadowed by the lingering taste of spice. Very good beer I liked this one a lot. One of the better Rogue’s I havae had.Would buy again, EDIT: I would not buy again. This beer is incredibly hard to finish in the bomber sized by yourself and it makes you want to vomit bc it is over the top spicy and leaves you stomach in knots. No buy again. dutch23mp (163), Mount Prospect, Illinois, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jun 14, 2008 The finish of the peppers is just right as towards the end it is most pronounced. Well balanced with the hops complementing the peppers.
