🌍 United States · Blonde Ale · One of 9 Blonde Ales in hopIQ

A blonde ale built as an American answer to a Mexican lager — soft biscuit-malt sweetness, honey-like grain undertones, a bright citric-hop lift, and a clean, refreshing finish. Beach Cat is Back Forty's summer bottle, purpose-built for a dock or a screened porch. Under 5%, easy, unpretentious.
