Brewed in collaboration with Joey "Exotic" Johnson from Corks & Kegs. Tiger King is a 7.0% ABV, single-hop Citra New England style IPA. Brewed for those who have seen a tiger and understand, but meant to be enjoyed by everyone except Carole down in Florida.

Poured from a 16oz can into a tulip glass

Look: Opaque hazy peach with a thick white head.

Smell: Funky citra all the way. Mango, guava, and papaya. That arm pitty funk you get from citra. All hops with just a kiss of malt.

Taste: Exactly like the nose. Guava, passion fruit, and mango. Malt is clean and light. Juicy.

Feel: Pillowy and clean. There is a hint of hop burn here but nothing unpleasant. Soft carbonation. No alcohol.

Overall: A solid beer. Nothing mind blowing. Especially in this category but you could do far far worse for a beer with a gimmicky name.
