Clown Shoes: Chocolate Sombrero, Philly, Georgia
Today, Clown Shoes is brewing Chocolate Sombrero (previously known as cocoa powder.) The brewery dubs it their Mexican imperial stout, because it uses ancho chile powder, cinnamon, and organic vanilla extract. This brew day marks the last stout they are brewing for the season.
Starting next week, Clown Shoes expands into Philadelphia. Georgia will see expanded distribution soon (as right now the beers are only sold in Total Wines in the state, which has raised legality questions.)
Mercury Brewing in Ipswich, Massachusetts is expanding their facility, which will allow for more Clown Shoes.
As for Mexican Sombrero:
Style: Imperial Stout
Adjuncts: Vanilla extract, Ancho chili powder, cinnamon.

Chocolatey, Spicy, Chili Beer From New Belgium Hitting Shelves
The latest Lips Of Faith creation from New Belgium Brewing – Cocoa Mole arrives this week. Mole combines chocolate and chilis for a flavor roller coaster in a glass.
Chocolate, cinnamon and chilies combine for a sweet and spicy burst of fun in the newest Lips of Faith offering, Cocoa Mole. Brewed with pale, cara-mel-80, chocolate, dark chocolate malts and healthy dash of chocolate rye, Cocoa Mole presents midnight dark with a subtle reddish hue, lifting a pillowy, burnished head. The cocoa and cinnamon accompany plentiful ancho, guajillo and chipotle chilies to bring the mole merriment to the forefront. Cocoa Mole starts on the tongue with the sweet and finishes with the fine-spun heat of peppers. A worldly contrast in a glass, this beer will get you dancing with Mexican Hats. Ole!
Style: Chili Beer

World’s Hottest Beer Is Back! In 7 States Too
Twisted Pine Brewing Company just wanted to make Ghost Face Killah the hottest beer on the planet. To my knowledge they still have that title. They first bottled Ghost Face in May of last year (2011.) The demand for it has been overwhelming.
At its base, Ghost Face Killah is an American-style wheat ale, but it is undeniably different than any other wheat beer out there. Once fermentation is complete, six different strains of chili peppers are introduced: Anaheim, Fresno, jalapeño, serrano, habanero and bhut jolokia, the ‘ghost’ pepper. The result is liquid fire that makes endorphins rush and foreheads sweat. The intense heat presents itself immediately and persists for more than a minute after the sip. Due to the extreme nature of the beer, Ghost Face Killah is sold individually in twelve ounce bottles, as Twisted Pine feels that amount is the perfect dose.
Now the brewery has made enough to hit 7 states: Colorado, as well as in Texas, New Mexico, Florida, Nebraska, Missouri and Louisiana.
Style: Chili Beer (understatement)
Arrival: Late January, 2012 (2nd release)
Side note: Yeah, Ghost Face Killah is part of the Wu Tang Clan. He signed off on the name last year, as long as a few cases made it to him in NY. A little Wu Tang shall we?
