I must admit I was drawn in to purchasing this six pack because of the unique and rather awesome design on the cans. But it also helped that the beer was brewed by one of New Mexico's finest breweries, Santa Fe Brewing Company.
But like I said, for an aluminum can, the packaging was so gorgeous. In a black and white design that resembles the beautiful Navajo blankets of the Southwest, everything about this beer screams New Mexico. The beer flavor profile even includes red New Mexican chiles and bitter cacao nibs. You wouldn't expect those flavors to work so well together, but the raw cocoa and red chile is expertly used in this dark red beer. The complex, malty taste of this beer is excellent. Their website suggests pairing with New Mexican holiday favorites, like posole and tamales, but this beer stands on its own as the perfect winter beer.
Only available for the winter, I will miss this beer at the end of the season. But Santa Fe Brewing Co. is no stranger to making good beer, and look forward to whatever specialty beers await me in the spring.
And if you find yourself in the Land of Enchantment this season, you can get your hands on this craft brew at almost any establishment that sells beer, or better yet visit one of Santa Fe Brewing Co.'s four taproom locations: one in Albuquerque, and three in Santa Fe.
i like it so much cool retro kind of dotmatrix like artwork pours with a brown body that supports a tan head of foam The modest aroma offers up chocolate nuanced nutmeg and ginger to go along with a bit of a rootbeer sensation The taste is similar as there’s some chocolate notes and then spices like nutmeg cinnamon and a sliver or two of ginger Behind those notes are some classic honey sweetened ripe apple and pear like fruity esters Pretty neat brew

thats Dark amber with nice head that held on Smells of roasted malts and chocolate Was worried about the CAN saying it had chile in it because some of the pepper brews I have had in the past was a recipe for heartburn This one did not pack a pepper punch but still had some nice chile flavor going on Really enjoyable brew on a cold day

So cool so cool indeed. Santa Fe Brewing co has come on board with a new wave of marketing style. The old guys must be feeling the pressure. At this rate Santa Fe Brewing co may win the hearts of the investors to the extent that they could buy out the shared of the founders.
I have aslo seen designs for East Brother beer. Its also another cool design that one desrves to see.
