Alley Kat Brewing Co. Full Moon IPA American IPA at 5.5% ABV (341 ml, no bottle date or best before)
Appearance: clear pale amber with one fat finger of rocky light tan head, good retention and patchy lacing. (3/5) Aroma: pine, caramel, citrus, grassy and floral. (6/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderately strong bitter. (6/10) Medium body, moderate carbonation, lingering bitter finish. (3/5)
An OK A/IPA, nothing special. Hops are too muted, and malt too pronounced, for my preference. Despite the low hop aroma, the finish tends to an unbalanced aggressive bitter. It’s not bad, but not worth making a special effort to get. (12/20)
