5.5% Ghost Chili English Brown Ale 25 IBUs

A cask of Alfred Brown Ale dosed with ghost peppers by Chris “Burnleg” Martinez inspired this commercially kegged brew.

Adding ghost peppers into a fermenter full of Alfred Brown gives this beer a wicked twist.  Notes of tobacco, chocolate, and malt sweetness give way to a slow building warming sensation imparted by the infamous ghost pepper chili.  Consistent with our brewing philosophy, we deliver flavors associated with the ghost pepper in a subtle manner so as to enhance the underlying character of our traditional Alfred Brown.  You’ll recognize the ghost pepper’s presence with your first sip, but the uniqueness of this beer shines as you empty your glass.  Expect to experience  a growing, yet always pleasant, sensation of warmth on the palate, in the throat and down to the stomach.  The Ghost of Alfred Brown will continue to haunt you even after you’ve moved on.  A slow burn never tasted so good.

Get it while you can, you don’t want this ghost to disappear on you!
