I had this only once ... back in 2014. Wild! Green Leaf mentioned what it's currently hopped with, but the old recipe certainly had Simcoe in it. Just seems like that's not the case anymore. Regardless, I really dug it back then. Might have to revisit it at some point if I can find a can. Sounds nice, for sure. Good review, Joe. Cheers, man!

I discussed this beer a couple of weeks ago in a BA thread and I posted: “The flavor follows the nose with mostly tropical fruit flavors but also some citrus as well; there is also a bit of resin on the palate. There is a firm, notable bitterness.” I still have a couple of cans left in the refrigerator and in my last can (a couple of days ago) I noted that it more of a dank quality (the catty aspect you mentioned?). As with hop forward beers the flavor profile will evolve with aging. Cheers!

That’s super rad that the beer changed a bit! I love when that happens. It’s why I always try to buy multiple cans of hoppy beers, drink one fresh, and then the other about a month later. It’s fun to do 🍻

@@jsenigaglia I had another can earlier this evening. Notable dank on the palate but a diminished amount of aroma. Unfortunately while Fat Heads makes exceptional hoppy beers they suffer from hop fade fairly quickly; the canning date of this beer is 8/29/24. I have one can of IBU-sive left and I will make sure to drink it soon (maybe tomorrow?). Cheers!

According to their website, this is hopped with Strata, Citra, & Mosaic. Their website has great info. Too bad they don’t put more info on their labels 🍻

Maybe the mosaic was making it smell like that? I would have bet anything there was Simcoe in this beer lol

I think they tweaked the hop bill at some point. I had it for the first and only time back in 2014, and I'm pretty sure Strata wasn't available commercially back then. I could be wrong, though. I just checked BeerAdvocate (for the first time in a long while!), and the description there says Mosaic, Columbus, Chinook, Simcoe and Citra. Wild. I know a lot of breweries have tweaked/improved their classics over the years, so I guess it makes sense.
