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.

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.
