COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Fat Angel, rest his soul, had a complex palate that balances the rich pleasures of malt with the crisp refreshing flavor of hops with a finish that is fresh and clean. Eminently drinkable, Fat Angel brought divergent tastes together to create a satisfyingly smooth harmony.

You know, it was alright but not my favorite. 12 ounce bottle. Poured a medium dark brown if that makes sense. Not alot of head, no real lacing. Some hops, didn’t really get the malt. It was alright but not the best. Maybe it should be retired.

It had a decent color and aroma but failed to get my attention as I drank it. It was mediocre and nothing seemed to make me think about it while I drank it.

Bottle. orange color, offwhite head. Quite weak aroma. Fruity hoppy flavor but really not that much to taste in it.

Just a general comment on this one -- it’s so light and smooth that it nearly gets away with its lack of substance. Truthfully, this beer is probably not as bad is its rating, but for folks looking for a nice bitter English ale, they will not find much in common with the Brit lines of the same style.

Very smooth with an interesting light color.... very refreshing ice cold. A nice pale ale that is almost too easily consumable.

UPDATED: JAN 26, 2008 This beer is an English pale ale but the hopping is spicy rather than earthy. Dry finish, clean taste. Not the best.

light look to the pale ale upon the pour. little lacking in flavor and easy drinking. middle line beer not rushing to buy. better pale ale’s out there, more flavor/aroma etc.

This is my favorite beer of all time... I work next door to this place, and I have tried them all. This one is by far the best beer in the line-up! I could take the tour everyday and drink free samples until they ask me to leave! Magic Hat is the best beer in VT. Enjoy!!
