16oz can with no date purchased at Blue Max Liquor. Very pale lemon with minimal head. Hazy but not like most strive to be. Interesting nostalgic aroma of pineapple juice and coconut. Smells like that horrible cocktail we use to drink as teenagers (Malibu rum and pineapple juice). Flavor features the Sabro hop with notes of pineapple, tropical fruit, citrus, and coconut. Mild dankness and low bitterness. The flavor confuses my palate as it almost makes me believe I am drinking one of the those fruit drinks you can buy at the Asian market. Very low carbonation, disappointingly so.

Pours a hazy cloudy golden wheat color with a thin fresh head. Smell is citrus ,garden herbal and berries. Taste has notes of tangerine ,mint lime,pine and passion fruit. A dry mouth feel fruity and tropical with medium carbonation some bitterness with pine resin and dankness.

Montgomery Tiger King Juicy Hazy Double IPA. Featured Hop Sabro.
8.6 % ABV. 16 IBU.
Montgomery Brewing, Montgomery, MN.

Well, this is more like it.So many breweries these days leave the "hazy" off the label, as if you're just expecting every IPA and double IPA to come naturally hazy. You don't know what you're getting! "What, you actually care about whether your IPA is or is not "hazy/juicy" Sorry about that." No, they're probably not sorry.

On with the beer:

Absolutely hazed-up, with a dull orange color, and a thin ring of foam.

In the nose: Aburst with citrus and a touch of pine. Hop-tastic.

In the mouth: Powerful on the palate, forceful radiation of citrus hop flavors, brimming over with grapefruit, lemon and orange. Juicy, sure. And wonderfully bitter. That's the problem with the "juicy/hazy"'s, I don't know if I'll get enough bitter. And that 16 IBU...that can't be right. Bitterness flashes on the palate, then subsides. Fruity, bitter, dry, yum.

Medum bodied, with a long, bitter finish, ending dry. Citrus hop flavor never ends. Quite a tasty beer. Go out and get some.

Something tells me they wanted to call this Sabro-tooth Tiger, but then they found out Surly already had that name. Or, they just got caught up in all that Tiger King mania that was all the rage in the early part of quarantine. Glad to see it's been tamped down some, lately. Hey, maybe, just maybe, Carol Baskin didn't kill her husband, you ever think of that? How did that maniac (Joe Exotic) become popular, I wonder, and then remember that Donald Trump is president.
