Rogue Chipotle Ale
Name - Rogue Chipotle Ale
Country - United States
Type - Chili Beer
Appearance - Poured slightly murky copper color with a frothy white head.
Smell - Overwhelming smell of peppers. Couldn’t really pick anything else up.
Taste - Peppers, peppers and more peppers. I really didn’t pick up anything malts or hops in the taste and it also tasted a bit rubbery.
This was my first chili beer and may very well be my last. I figured I would give it a whirl but was just met with something I just didn’t like. When I had a glass with our taco dinner it was bearable but trying to drink it alone was a challenge. I like spicy foods but I don’t want to taste peppers in my beer. Now I know better.
Overall Grade – D-

That’s interesting, especially from Rogue. I guess they can’t all be winners, right? I’ve never had a Chili beer, but if I get the urge I suppose I’ll pass on this one. OTOH, we reviewed an Australian Chili beer from Outback Brewing that was well-liked by our reviewer.
