Description
Fat Head's was founded in 1992 as a premiere craft beer tap house and restaurant in Pittsburgh, PA. In 2009 we expanded to Ohio and teamed up with our award-winning Head Brewmaster Matt Cole. With the explosion in popularity came the necessity to open a full-scale production brewery in 2012. Fat Head's Brewery produces original ales and lagers for distribution throughout Ohio and Western Pennsylvania.

Our Tap House offers Samples, Flights, and Fresh-brewed Pints! Sit right in the heart of our facility and enjoy the freshest beer from our tanks to your pint glass. We have a 16 tap draft system, bar seating, picnic tables, and some seriously tasty grub to go with it.

Tangerine, biscuit malt, and orange peel aroma. Hazy golden yellow with giant white head. Very sweet tangerine, biscuit malt, and moderately bitter orange peel flavor. Good body. Nice fruity flavor.

Draft at Beerhead Bar & Eatery - Avon. Pours a clear gold with a finger of white foam that lingers. Dank and citrus aromas on the nose. Balanced but leans dry on the finish. Lingering dank, pine, citrus and blueberry notes.

Can. I've been putting this one off for a while, stayed in the fridge for a long time. Pop the lid and yes its a clean fresh pleasant peach nose. Looks like a semi clear peach color or should I say simply off pale. Nice head. Taste is a little peachy but much less than expected considering the nose. In the middle I was thinking I would not like this beer because of my experiences with other peach beers that were either over the top & unbalanced, or seemed totally artificial. Actually its quite friendly, mild and muted with its real peach flavor. I'm pleased to say this stuff is really not too bad, I just wish it had a tad more co2. It is actually quite flat, very little if any co2, needs much much more considering this flavor. Yea, I'm not diggen the unintentional nitro effects in this one.

Can: pours black with beige head. Aroma is dark fruit, liquorice, some coffee. Taste is sweetish, low bitterness. On the old school side working with expressive malts. Solid.

Draft and multiple cans. Pours a clear gold with a finger of off-white foam that lingers. Grapefruit, candied citrus, melon and pineapple as it warms. Dry on the palate with more citrus, dank, melon and pine as it warms. Bone dry finish with great balance. One of the best available year round IPAs in the US.

OK, I am not an IPA fan so ignore my numbers, this stuff is definitely fresh and terribly on style for the IPA class. My big glass at happy hour was half price so I could not resist this tick, even as a lager lover. The eye is clear pale with big white head. Nose is a nice fresh fruity smell on top of hop perfume. The palate is a good level of co2 and its not as mouthcoating as most IPA. Tongue is what else? It's big bitter and dull, like any other heavy citra or mosaic beer. Yes, one bitter straight up on style ass IPA fer sure. Lots of green grape fruit rind in there. Pine yes, but melon and berries? I don't know, the IPA bitterness is the overriding affect. If you like IPA, this won't be around long, better put it on yer bucket list, you gottah try a sample. Me? Forgettaboutit, WHEW!

This copper colored ipa has a fairly resinous, fruity aroma and taste with moderate bitterness. Given the name I expected a dankier flavor but it’s pretty good.
