Tasting Notes
Pepper Heat, Citrus, Mango
Based on flavor the heat is definitely there, leaves a good tingle in the mouth and on the lips. I used 3.5 Scorpions with a single gallon, seeds and all. The mango is barely there. Used one whole Mango. Next time will probably use 1.5 to give it a bit more flavor. Turned out real good.

This is by no means an advertisement for any company but I am still "cutting my teeth" in brewing so I still use pre-made recipes until I get used to everything and get grain mixtures correctly.

This is intended to give heat otherwise why would you use scorpion peppers.

I used the 1 Gallon Brooklyn Brew Afternoon Wheat.

Have 2.5 - 3.5 Scorpion peppers chopped and ready with seeds

1.5 normal sized mangoes puréed (I used 1 the first time but the Mango was barely detectable)

Follow the normal directions until 5 minutes of boil time remain.

At 5 minutes add in the peppers and mango.

Continue with regular instructions. That easy. Once I start mixing my own grains I'll begin to provide more recipes.
