Pours a opaque orange with a pale hue. Head is three fingers of fluffy white foam. Aroma is thick papaya, tangerine, and orange citrus and very mild green hop residue behind. It has a biscuity, doughy malt base. Storyline is thick and sticky sweet tropical fruit hop notes. Flavor profile is a big blast of papaya, tangerine, guava, strawberry, melon, and orange. The green hop note from the nose doesn't translate to the palate. Doughy malts are viewable in glimpses, but the storyline is a thick and consistent hops. Mouth feel is medium-thick with a soft, creamy texture. Overall, this one fails to bring me as much joy as spending time with my own pets (the label and name is based on the pets of BKS Artisan Ales employees), but it's still pretty darn good. About the same color as an orange cat too.

Served in a 2023 AM membership glass from a 16oz can.

Completely hazy, a yellow-gold. Off-white head. Aroma is grapefruit and bitter orange, the taste has this and a bit more resin bitterness to go along with it. The mouthfeel is light for the ABV, and finishes with a good mix of bitter and malty sweetness.

Can purchased from the brewery 4/8/2022.
