 Thanks for checking out this episode of brutal battle beer break today. I'm going to be doing a beer by the brewery They're out of placentia, California I don't know I'm saying that right, but that's where they're out of this is their or Chata, which is a take on I guess it's an homage kind of to the the drink or Chata, which is a Latin drink Become pretty popular in California as well I've never had or Chata before but I know what's in it and I've seen it and I've seen people drink it on TV actually We don't get it out here. I'm on the east coast. It's not a thing But I know it's made with like tiger nuts sometimes sesame seeds stuff like that so by Seeing the consistency of it and knowing what's in it. I can guess what it's like but basically this is kind of their homage to or Chata and This is a blonde ale that's aged that's done with rice and then has vanilla beans and cinnamon added to it So sounds interesting sounds like it could be very tasty and it is 7.2 percent alcohol So oh It's like if you're familiar with the brewery. It's kind of like all their labels their labels are you know usually close to the same shape But let's see It'll be interesting to see if they're like creamy characteristics in it because I believe what I know of or Chata It looks like it is a creamy drink So I would be interested to know if they have like a creamy aspect very orange very clear Maybe a little bit of like a haziness from the cold nice white head to it Swirl it up and Okay Definitely get the vanilla coming through and the cinnamon Which is quite nice Get that blonde blonde ale type smell Very crisp refreshing. I Don't know what the what the rice particularly would smell like in this so I'm gonna say I can't pick out the rice But there is kind of like a creamy Creamy aroma to it. I feel like the the vanilla and the cinnamon Melting together are kind of making it smell like it could be kind of a creamy type beer, but smells very interesting it's actually Not in a bad way, but it has a little bit of kind of like a pep-toe-bismol type smell on the end of the aroma kind of weird Get plenty of that cinnamon right off the bat Obviously get some of the vanilla, but it's more of like cinnamon up front vanilla on the back of it Oh vanilla actually really lingers on the tongue and That kind of gives it it does give it a tad bit of a creamy aspect to it Because that that vanilla just like really lays right on your tongue hmm finishes blonde ale-ish With like a nice crisp clean note Very light, but with that little bit of creaminess a little bit of a of a hey aspect to it as well Not tasting the pep-toe-bismol that I was smelling in it. So very happy about that. I Wouldn't go wild over this beer I think it's a good beer and for what they were trying to do I'm assuming it was done well because like I said I've not had horchata before but it tastes interesting to me and It's interesting enough for me to keep going back I feel like the cinnamon is Maybe a tad bit more than I would want up front But then it kind of dissipates pretty quick and the vanilla is what I'm really liking and the way the vanilla builds up toward The end and it just kind of like lays on your palate for a while really enjoying that vanilla. So Pretty decent beer Yeah, I'll continue to drink this. I'll enjoy this. I won't go wild over it I wouldn't say this is a must-have or anything But if you already have a bottle you'll be fine with it If you like what you hear about it, then you should go get some but other than that Pretty good job the brewery. I like what you guys do typically. So thanks everyone for joining me Thanks the brewery for making interesting beers and go grab yourself a interesting beer to sip on tonight
