 Thanks for joining me for this episode of brutal battle beer break Going to be having a another beer out of a can. You know, I like the cans This one's by two brothers artisan brewing. They're out of Warrenville, Illinois This beer in particular is called night cat and it is a hoppy wheat as you can see. Yes night cat hoppy wheat We've got that little swirly thing there whatever Crack this sucker open so I'm assuming this will basically taste like a wheat beer With more hops than you're typically expecting from a wheat beer So right off the bat it looks a lot darker than I was assuming it would be when you say wheat at all You're thinking very yellow straw type coloration. This is very dark. This looks more of like a Like a darker style Belgian wheat, you know those styles like a dark Fransisco or something like that. So what other than that? I mean, you can see right through it. It's just darker Smells hoppy smells it will we tea Very nice citrusy aroma in that poppy aspect Hmm a little bit Little grapefruity Some tropicality to it Just based on the smell Other than that little bit of like, you know, the weedy nose to it If you take the weedy nose away, it would definitely just smell exactly like a straight-up IPA Gonna be honest the hop presence is significantly more than I thought it was gonna be a lot of these hoppy wheat beers You know, it's it's some hops. It's hoppier, but it's not like crazy amount of hops This smells like it's kind of a lot of hops. So let's see very different from what it smells like The mouth is like it's almost nothing there, honestly I get a bunch of that kind of citrusy flavor up front with a little bit of Little bit of like a bitter and rind type flavor to get the weedy flavor, but All flavors fall off my tongue very fast. It is very watery as a beer Which you know with wheat beers You never expect them to be like in your face. I'm real thick and like lingering on your tongue a whole lot But with this one, it is even more watery than I would expect from a wheat beer I don't think I'm big on it to be honest just because of that aspect and because everything falls off so fast I don't have a whole lot of like good flavor sticking around It's mainly just some bitterness hanging out and it's not even much of anything I would say because it is so watery It would make it extremely sessionable as people say so you could drink a lot of it which speaking of that It's five point eight percent alcohol by volume. So, you know, it's low So you could sip this and get a little bit of flavor, but I'm gonna be honest I'd like a lot more flavor. I want things to kind of hang out so Not that impressed with it. Sorry two brothers. I would not recommend this beer to anyone, but Well, I mean, okay, I won't say not to anyone if you liked what you heard then go ahead and check it out I would not get it again.
