DESCRIPTION

This is Hepcat. A Session IPA. Our mainstay and our original. It’s everything the style should be – fruity nose, juicy body, bright taste. Can we humbly call it a classic?

Goes well with dancefloors and smooth moves.

Bottle from the (sadly now closed) London bottleDog. Pours slightly hazy godlen/amber with a long lasting creamy off white head. Aroma of tropical fruit, hop, light malt, biscuit, caramel and banana. Light sweetness, medium bitterness. Medium body, slight oily texture, soft carbonation. Finish has a good level of long lasting fruity bitterness. Very enjoyable.

19th Nov 2016: 33cl bottle at the brewery. Golden with a good white head. Hops to the fore in the floral and citrus aroma, a light maltiness balances out the hops in the taste. An easy drinking beer that has enough going on to make it interesting, lots of different flavours coming through, fruity, grassy and malty with a mild citrusy base.
