Mad Hatter is an I.P.A. that explodes with hop flavors. Dry-hopping provides a distinctive and floral hop aroma, while the lively and hoppy body is subtly balanced with delicious malt notes. Hatter's hop character makes it a great fit for spicy dishes, bitter greens and beef.
12.5° Plato, Alc. 5.25% by Vol.
My Thoughts: This beer poured a cloudy orange out of the bottle with very little head. The smell was very floral and smelled quite good, but the first taste to me did not have a huge hop profile. Sure there was some bitterness, but I'd put it on par with more of a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale in terms of bitterness at first taste. Since I couldn't locate any data which gave the actual IBU rating, if I had to make a guess I would say this brew falls somewhere around 50-55ibu. The middle of this beer in fact tasted 60% hop and 40% malt. It had both medium body and medium carbonation. Overall it was well balanced but in terms of IPAs that I've had, the Mad Hatter didn't have me dying to have a second one. Also, the 5.25%ABV was not noticeable at all in this brew.
