The Cave Creek Chili Beer is one of the most controversial beers in our wide range: on the most popular beer review sites, it is sometimes traded as the worst beer in the world, while others swear by the brew with the special extra ingredient.
The inventor of the Cave Creek Chili Beer is Ed Chilleen, who is affectionately called Crazy Ed by his friends and acquaintances. Crazy Ed has a brewery and his wacky invention was a commission he created for a restaurant owner friend. The boss of a Mexican pub wanted a beer that went well with the cuisine of his country. Ed then bought a can of pickled Serrano chillies and asked his brewmaster to place a chilli in the next best bottle of beer. After a week, the excited inventors tried their beer. The end result was controversial: Beer and pickled chilli had combined in an unfavorable symbiosis and didn’t really harmonize well with each other. Nevertheless, the strange creation hit like a bomb. Nobody had brewed a beer before and peppered it with a pickled chili.
The internet is full of videos of people tasting this beer and their reactions are priceless. We recommend Eds Cave Creek Chili Beer to all those who really want to surprise their palate and personally convince themselves of the hype surrounding this brew.
