packaged Flaming Hessian
found_drama:
Packaged 46 × 12 oz. bottles of "Flaming Hessian" - a chili-pumpkin ale. Not *quite* as much heat as if have liked (but was afraid we'd have overdone it too) -- it'll be serviceable for the Halloween party though. FG 1.010 → 5.6% ABV 🎃:beer

Flaming Hessian chili-pumpkin ale -- could stand another couple days to finish carbonating, and I wish it had a little more chili heat, but it works (and I've got good ideas for next year's batch) #latergram #homebrewing
