Pepper Beers and Local Hot Sauce Tasting

111 Second Ave. NE, St. Petersburg. Sept. 3, 3-9 p.m. 727-821-2533. Event on Facebook.

Your extended Labor Day weekend just got a whole lot spicer.

Previously slated for Thursday (thanks, Hermine), this Ale & the Witch beer sampling will spotlight three Motorworks Brewing beers — each made with a different pepper in the brewing process.

The Saturday event's lineup: a special cask of chocolate scotch bonnet imperial porter, a mesquite chip-aged morita pepper tequila amber, and a chocolate datil pepper imperial porter from the Bradenton craft brewery.

Pinellas Park-based Your Hot Sauce Company might also be on site with bottled hot sauces available for purchase, while Este Loves and Rebekah Pulley & The Reluctant Prophets provide the evening's sounds starting at 5 p.m.
