The short days and long nights bring this prowling cat out on the town, looking to scatch up some fun with a great beer. This Night Cat is dark in color, bold in hop but not heavy in body. It is full of tropical fruit notes from the Citra hops that combine with a nice dark wheat malt flavor.

Clear brown body with a soapy off-white head that leaves an archipelago of lace. Nose is very bready, including toasted and crust, with an overtone of caramel and must. The flavor is equally focused on the bread and burnt grapes, with a bitter, chalky finish. Body is medium-full, with a surprising, but for once out-of-place, smoothness.
Missed the mark. The malts didn't provide much sweetness nor appreciable flavor, and the hops contributed only the negative aspects of bitterness. I'm still searching for a tasty example of this style.

Brilliant clear tiger-eye brown with a large cream-colored foamy head that clings.
Smell is light green pine, grass, corn, grape, toffee, and a touch of gasoline.
Taste is light and drinkable white corn, white grape, light wheat toast, and light pine with a hint of grapefruit.
Moderately sweet, watery and slick. Simply put: "Lite!"

Had on tap. Murky amber brown with a tan collar. Caramel, muted cocoa, wheat, and earthy hop aromas. Taste is a muddled version of the nose, but hops shine more in the finish, think pine and slight citrus zest. Feel is easy going, has wheat and hop elements but nothing defining.
