Trivia
- A Capotain was a type of hat worn by those of the Puritan faith in the early colonization of eastern North America.
- The Capotain was also supposedly worn by Witch Hunters.
- The description is a reference to The Bible, Exodus 22:18, which is often translated as "Suffer not a witch to live". It has, however, been modified for the Demoman's use and effectiveness in destroying Sentry Guns.
- The hat was submitted under the name "The Inquisitor" before Valve renamed it "Carouser's Capotain". Because of the changed name, the hat's textures are in the Demoman hat folder twice.
- Valve re-skinned the hat after submission by the author.
- The Carouser's Capotain currently has a Painting bug. The correct color will show up when the Demoman is on RED team, but on BLU team the Paint will only show as a slight tint of the blue.
- A carouser is someone who enjoys riotous drinking.
- Due to HellJumper feeling the hat was poorly implemented both on his and Valve's part, he has taken to redesigning it.
