Did the brewery go out of business? I hope not

The brewery is closed. No great loss.

The Chili Beer is now contract brewed in Mexico, and is as crappy a
gimmick as it ever was.

Not to be contrary, but as I understand it, the brewery MAY have gone out of
business, but the beer is brewed for bottling (only) in Minnesota (Black
Rock Brewery?)

Supposedly, there still is The Satisfied Frog Restaurant (and brewery) in
Cave Creek, Arizona, where the whole Crazy Ed's thing got started. Beer
brewed there is for consumption on premises in the restaurant only.

I don't believe that it is or ever was contract brewed in Mexico, but maybe
someone who lives in the area can confirm where it comes from currently.

Personally, I don't consider it a brew that is either "crappy" or "a
gimmick." It goes quite pleasantly with a plate of enchiladas, carne asada,
or even a lowly bowl of "crappy" canned chili. It is "unique" and
"different", but not "a gimmick."

One of us checked the web site. One of us didn't.

It's crappy. It's a gimmick. Never again. It goes pleasantly with the
drain, as it gurgles down the sink. A michelada goes way, way, waaaay
better with enchiladas, carne asada, taquitos, chalupas, lengua con
salsa verde, etc.

I totally agree I loved the beer and applaud the brewery for making
something great tasting and different.

Maybe there should be a age limit on the lower side for having a 'puter

Because if there was one, they'd take yours away?

Maybe there should be a "willing to drink crappy beer" limit for owning
a computer.
