Fat Heads Hop JuJu

This is a decent IIPA, not great, but good. It had a lot of nice characteristics from an IIPA that you would expect. Nice hop aroma and flavor. Mostly dank and earthy. A little citrus, but not too much. It was actually more malty than I expected. And as it warmed, the alcohol really came up front. That was a draw back for me. It was good, but I'm not sure I would go out of my way to get this again.

That is a deal breaker for me, too.

Same here. I'm a Belgian weenie, and think that alcohol should be hidden no matter how potent it is.

Stopped in at their Taphouse in Middleburg Hts last fall, only did flights so didn't get to warm up enough I guess to get the heat, but cold and straight from the tap it had wonderful nose and I expected much more bitter for the IBU's.

Steve...your right on with that. I actually had a taster where I filled the growler. And cold right from the tap was full of nose and really nice. That's the reason I decided to bring some home. Then, I was dissapointed later as it warmed.
