COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Fat Cat Lager is handcrafted in the time-honored Bavarian tradition and is a classic Vienna lager. The amber-colored brew has a subtle aroma and crisp, mildly bitter taste. Fat Cat Lager is made with Brewer’s two-row malt, carapils malt, caramel malt and domestic hops. Fat Cat Lager has a malty, toasty aroma with just a hint of noble hops in a drying finish.

This beer is not perfect. This beer is .50/can though. Frankly, a lot can be forgiven at that price and to compare this to other quality beer at $1.00/bottle or more is a bit unfair. Anyway, I like it. It certainly beats most everything in its class that I can think of. By the way, the sales at ridiculously low prices were promotional, attempting to buy market share. Honestly, everyone I know that’s given this beer a try has been impressed by the taste for the money.

The only thing good about this beer is the very cool cans and the cool slightly Orange color. Other than that..it’s crap!

I myself have suffered through a 12er of Fat Cat with Funk and the Iceman, it tastes EXACTLY like a 2.99 12 pack, all I can say is that its an experience and one you will not forget quickly--despite how many beers you drink afterwards.

This was absolutely horrible. May it not be confused with the Fat Cat brewery beers. This stuff is cheap as hell 2.99 for a 12 pack. The absolute cheapest I have ever seen. The can is really cool looking. oarnge with a cat that looks completely stoned. Anyway, this beer was on a huge display in the middle of the store for one time and one time only, I ve never seen it since. Bottome line, it tastes like ass, but is the only beer with an orange can ive seen so far.
