Finally a real news group! Cheers!

Welcome, David.

I'm having my last bottle of Rogue Imperial Pale Ale. :^) or is that :^(

I had a Rogue Chipotle Ale the other day as a lark. I am not entirely sold on the concept of chile in my beer, but this one was pretty well executed. Awesome smokey chipotle flavor and no heat that I could detect, although my tastebuds are somewhat abused by the extreme levels of chile peppers I enjoy almost daily. I liked it, but barely made it through the 22 oz bomber. Definitely a novelty for me.

I love this one. With Cave Creek being disgusting, with a completely horrible lager beneath the one-dimensional chili burn, Rogue's beer features a nice enough pale ale layered with that hint of peppery smokiness. Its the right way to do a chili beer.

I haven't seen that one around here yet but...now I'm having my last Rogue Old Crusty.:^(

Btw, anybody here plan on attending next weekend's Colorado brewfest in Ft. Collins? I'm willing to sign autographs if you show up. lol

I've been thinking about it. The only hitch is that my wife will have to give birth this week, and stop holding out on us!

I mourn the contract-brewed St. Croix Serrano Pepper Ale, which has, to the best of my knowledge, ceased production. Great pepper taste, just enough heat.
