7 Spicy Craft Beers to Try Primary Image

Sriracha, the beloved and now iconic chili sauce, has made its way into chips, hummus, and even ice cream, so it was only a matter of time before a brewery rolled out their own tangy take. Oregon’s Rogue Ales even released a Sriracha Hot Stout. The brewery is no stranger to spicy beer; they also make a Chipotle Ale that is brewed with roasted jalapeños grown on Rogue Farms in Independence, Oregon.

Here are five other spicy beers to be on the lookout for:

Habanero Sculpin IPA

Ballast Point Brewing (San Diego, California)

Sculpin is a stellar IPA in its own right. It’s fruity and bright without being overwhelmingly bitter. And an addition of habanero peppers doesn’t make it any less drinkable. It is definitely spicy, especially in the finish, but retains the tropical fruit and floral flavors.

Mexican Cake

Westbrook Brewing Co. (Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina)
