Funk Fuzz begins life in Whitby, Ontario; nurtured into existence at Town Brewery. It’s a 6.8% hazy IPA that comes in playfully ugly 473mL cans. The beer is an almost milky pale gold, under a silky white head. Bit of sediment, but nothing alarming.
FF has a smooth, tropical fruit aroma—mango and passionfruit, along with some OJ. The flavour has a mellow and sweet initial character, with tropical notes. It picks up a bit of steam at the back end, where citrus bitterness meets a dash of boozy heat.
The beer is almost certainly brewed with oats, since it is incredibly smooth. It tastes pretty good, but there isn’t much to distinguish this hazy IPA in an over-crowded marketplace. The finish is nice, but I’d have liked a more boisterous front end.
Rating: 6.5 out of 10.
