Taste: 8 Finish: 8 Visual: 4 Aroma: 3
Finish: 23
Magic Hat may not be the best brewery. But they are consistently good. Lucky Cat starts well with a great creamy head and a nice cloudy amber color. The aroma is a bit weak with spiced hops.
There is a bit of sweetness of the malt upfront. That is quickly overtaken by spiced hops. The hops are strong but not overpowering. In terms of intensity, it's middle of the road for an IPA. The finish is dry and has a bit of a copper penny flavor. The alcohol is higher (5.8%) but not huge.
A very serviceable IPA. Something much more drinkable than the high end IPAs that I love so much. But this is one that I can drink many of which certainly has it's uses.
