Brain Strain - Chilli Pilsner

4.8% ABV | 440ml Brewed to ignite the senses, this 4.8% Chilli Pilsner is a crisp, dangerously drinkable lager with a fiery twist. Clean bitterness from Magnum meets the subtle citrus spice edge of Saaz, creating a classic pilsner backbone that lets the heat shine. Fresh, locally sourced chillies - Bishop’s Crown, Brain Strain and Habanero deliver layered warmth from fruity brightness to slow building fire. Crafted to celebrate the New Zealand National Chilli Eating Challenge 2026 in Tauranga, this limited release balances refreshment with intensity - cool, crisp and boldly hot.
