🌍 United Kingdom · American Pale Ale · One of 212 American Pale Ales in hopIQ

Fat Cat's a Norwich institution, and Wild Cat proves they've got the hop game sorted. At 4%, it punches way above its weight — tangerine and grapefruit up front, clean and snappy, with just enough funk to keep it interesting. Light enough to drink all evening, bright enough to never bore.
