Traffic Lights Turn Blue Tomorrow
Fat Orange Cat Brew Co.

 

Lighter orange color, Very smooth and creamy, full flavor, very easy to drink. One of the best beers I’ve had.

Delicious citrus sweetness mixed perfect with the hops flavor and refreshing finish.

It’s A very unique tasting beer. First sip tasted like fruity bubblegum, like a tropical fruit or fruit punch gum it definitely finishes dry and yet is creamy as stated. There is something about the aroma and the taste that I don’t enjoy That’s very hard to define. It’s sort of piney and resinous Not quite dank, but also slightly astringent and medicinal band aid vibes. I suspect my pallet isn’t ready for this one right now and that I will enjoy the second beer more. It’s not overly sweet for a double IPA, which I very much appreciate.

Very well made NEDIPA here with loads of dank melon, excellent balance, and high drinkability. Highly recommend. Looking forward to grabbing more as this was just a single purchase.

This beer pours pale orange and is turbid. It is topped with an inch of creamy, beige head that leaves spotty lacing.

Grapefruit/citrus aroma

Sweet flavor with grapefruit/citrus flavors

Full bodied with a creamy mouthfeel

Solid IPA

 

Pours a yellow-orange color with a minimal white head that lasts quite a while. Aroma of orange juice. Taste is tart orange with a hint of grapefuit. Smooth and creamy.

 

 

 

 

 

Poured from a 16 ounce can into a snifter.

Look- Medium gold, very hazy, large visible particulate, cream colored frothy head, average head retention, above average lacing.

Smell- Clementine, pineapple, pithy.

Taste- Clementine, pineapple, pithy, mango, slight pine resin.

Feel- Between medium and full body, low bitterness, soft, slightly below average carbonation.

Overall- This was a well done NEIPA. Predominately citrus and pineapple with a very slight amount of astringency. Great look and nice feel.

 

With a world that's all orange, things are turning blue... tomorrow. Fat Orange Cat's imperial hazy IPA that celebrates Citra, Mosaic and Eureka hops provide a calming tone to get us through one more day.

Traffic Lights Turn Blue Tomorrow pours with a creamy golden taupe appearance, laced with a pudding-like turbidity that lies underneath a dense ivory cap. With an aroma of citrus, cream and fine herb playing out on the nose, Sweet, creamy and densely packed with cereal and starch, the malt profile is seemingly of light honey, cereal and wafers.

Once the richness of malt and grain subside, the hops grow into a series of fruit flavors that revolve around citrus. Lime, grapefruit, orange and lemon align on the middle palate like sherbet before more nuanced flavors of honeydew, papaya, pawpaw and apricot create a rounded smoothie effect in taste. With a slight nod to bitterness, the late taste is herbal, pleasantly grassy and slightly peppery.

Medium-full in body, the beer finishes more malty than dry with a juicy backdrop. Its full and starchy flavors seem to take away from the boldness of hops as the creamy grains control the taste and relegate the session to one lacing in brightness, pop and exuberance.

16oz can. Poured out a slightly cloudy, golden orange color with a small, off-white head of foam. It left sticky rings of lace on the glass. It smelled of orange, grapefruit, pineapple, guava and sweet caramel. Sweet tropical fruit taste with toasted caramel and a sharp, piney bitterness.

 

 

Look...The ideal looking NEDIPA look. Golden murky yellow with a frothy white head.
Smell...Very Pungent dank yeast. Hop citrus with a lovely strong bouquet of grassy dankness
Taste...Melon dank orange and dry. A beer that cuts the thirst easily and outstandingly. Bitter finish that is delivered well with a touch of acid in the finish. Love that it is not sweet but sweetens a little with temp rounding out the hop bitter
Feel....A tropical smoothie delivery with a fullness i expect with enough carbonation to lace the glass the entire drink through.
Overall...This beer is a fine example of a NEDIPA. The cost was very refreshing also at 16 out da door. I continue to be wary of the contract brewing in North Haven CT but not certain why? The number of quite reputable beer companies producing there Other Half, Abomination, Fat Orange Cat, Evil Twin, and 12 percent themselves. There are more too.
Anyways this is pretty darn good in the words of BA@SawDog
