Cat Faces
Southern Range Brewing Co.

I bought this strictly because the can is one of the coolest cans I've ever seen. I also like kitty cats. The only problem with this beer is it taste like it was brewed with pickles. It has a sour Dilly characteristic about it and I can't stand it.

Nice hazy pale orange color nice fluffy two finger cream colored head that laces well enough.

Aroma is juicy fruity, on good malt base fairly sweet light caramel blend. Ha some light bitterness pine with grass hints.

Taste is like the nose, caramel semi sweet with good grass/citrus notes over ripe fruit notes. Nice enough not over the top fruity hazy or bitterness wise. Just hitting middle of the road.

Mouhfeel is medium or slightly more, lightly peppy carbonation.

Overall not bad, but not something I would seek out.

 

A: Pours a relatively clear medium golden apricot in color with moderate amounts of fine active visible carbonation rising from the bottom of the glass and moderate medium golden yellow + honey colored highlights. The beer has a two finger tall sudsy fizzy foamy off-white head that reduces to a large patch of thin film covering a little more than 85% of the surface of the beer and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Light amounts of lacing are observed.

S: Moderate aromas of citrus/grapefruit pith, herbal, and pine/resin hops over the top of moderate aromas of caramel + bready + toasted malts with a light to moderate amount of caramel sweetness.

T: Upfront there are moderate flavors of caramel + bready + toasted malts with a light to moderate amount of caramel sweetness. That is followed by slightly stronger than moderate flavors of citrus/grapefruit pith, herbal, and pine/resin hops which impart a just shy of moderate amount of lingering bitterness.

M: Just shy of medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Light amounts of dryness in the finish.

O: Easy to drink and enjoyable - more of an old school West Coast style DIPA with a decent amount of bitterness and just enough malty sweetness to kind of balance it out.
