Eh good point. Abraxas was disappointing but not bad. I had a seriously hot quad and a kind of hot wit today that were just terrible
I haven't had it in 4 years but I thought it was really nice.
 
Has anyone ever made a good chili beer?
I just got back from a chili festival and, as you'd expect, all the beer was pretty spicy.
That **** does nót work

Grande ***** Voodoo Papi is great.

Copper Kettle Mexican Chocolate Stout is polarizing, but I like it. It is hot as ****.
 
Just did bottle inventory after telling everyone I've been buying less and drinking more recently to drink down the cellar.

Inventory went UP to 257 bottles...

When a Barleywine and an Imperial Stout love each other very much...
 
A buddy of mine chugged a Punishment for $50.

Which one is worse; Crime or Punishment? I did the old slamma jamma just for grins with 1 of them immediately after its release and still have the other one to do the same. I kinda want to say it was punishment I did it with thinking it was the hotter of the 2 so my followup chug wouldnt be as bad. I can confirm it hurts more on the way out... wish I had "buddies" who would pay me $50 for all the dumb **** I do for free.
 
My wife and I split a bottle of I think Crime (but not sure which at the moment) and had to eat through an entire cheese board to get through it. Afterwards we laid in bed unmoving in agony.

It had really good pepper flavor once you got past the heat. Very fruity and complex but it was like guzzling 16oz of carbonated hot sauce.

I can't confirm which is worse. They are both just awful.
 
Chili stouts: Abraxas/Huna/Mexicake>>>>>first couple batches of Bomb!>>>>>>everything else

Spiteful's Malevolence Chocolate Caliente deserves a spot on the list, it's as good as the three you listed. The BA version is better than BA Huna and BA Mexicake too, coming in a close second for me after (2014) BA Abraxas

Agree with this.. Though I've never had the BA version, I thought the regular was best stout in that style (non BA) I've ever had.
 
There was a Jester King beer called Whiskey Rodeo that was pretty great from what I remember. This was 2011 and probably before its time as far as that style goes.
I had a few bottles, opened the last in 2015 and it was oxidized AF.

Jester King put on a keg last year during the Super Bowl that was apparent great though.

I had a pour from a keg tapped at JK last year, it was really really good.
