The Growlery Beer Company Phat & Hazy – American IPA at 7% ABV (C$4.50 at Collective, 473 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 1-Nov-2022, reviewed 18-Nov-2022)
Appearance: slightly hazy pale gold with one fat finger of fluffy white head, good retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: citrus, tropical fruit, pale biscuity malt, light pine. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium body, moderate-soft carbonation, sweetish short duration finish. (3/5)
The label says this is hopped with “Citra and Cryo”. Cryo what? Dunno. Citra, maybe? A fairly typical interpretation of the “hazy” style, with a less-than-enthusiastic commitment to haze, and less-than-juicy aroma. It’s decent, but not very memorable – fine for e.g. watching the game. (14/20)
This will be my 5,427th unique Untappd check-in.
