Originally developed during the Citra shortage of 2013, Cat Lady is the foil, the counterpart, and the yin to Roman Candle's yang. Brewed to showcase those classic "C" hops, this hoppy IPA celebrates citrus...and cats.

Draft - Surprise, itβs cat pee and grass. Clear gold with a thin head. Lemon zest, grass and leafy hops. Bitterness comes in during the finish, but subdued. Pleasant and bright.

(500ml from bottle shop, 2 days old) Pours clear pale orange, small white head, no lace. Aroma very pungent and a little dank/catty with orange zest, peach/pit fruit, bit of mango, resiny. Flavour of oranges, a melange of other fruit, resinous - some sweetness in the malt but just enough to support those dank fruity hops. Nice pungency to the middle of the palate, finishes dry, with a decent helping of resiny, slightly peppery bitterness that clings to the tongue. Body medium but silky smooth with fairly low carb. Very flavourful but extremely drinkable IPA, love the Summit/Simcoe combo here. Prefer this to Roman Candle, nice backup plan!
