The beer
itself was golden orange, hazy, and covered in a sudsy and thick
off-white head. Its aroma was ample; packed with hops, tropical fruit
notes, and a faint whiff of tin. To my palate, the brew proved quite
fruity, with an emphasis on citrus elements. Bitterness was well
represented without launching an onslaught. My only complaints came
early--the mouthfeel proved a touch thinner than desired. Initially, I
was a bit nonplussed by the finish, too, but as the beer went down, I
found the dry and resinous notes nicely complimented the assertive fruit
flavours to provide a hoppy balance.
Fat
Head's Head Hunter was a strong IPA, both in terms of alcohol content
and quality. I liked it a lot and immediately wanted more.
Rating: 9.0 out of 10.
