| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 10, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a clear orange/amber color with a 1/2" white head. Aroma is mild citrus hops. Moderate body and quite drinkable. Mild hop flavor with a malt backbone. Typical IPA flavors, albeit on the mild side. Be a nice sessionable warm weather brew. gbdub (73), Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 7, 2009 Cloudy amber gold with a big, fluffy, off-white head. Fairly mild hop aroma. Pretty malty body with a crisp hoppy finish. Smooth and drinkable, but nothing very distinguished. phukktifano (159), Richmond, Virginia, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 30, 2009 Updated: Jul 7, 2009 3/26/2009 and 7/07/2009: Magic Hat Lucky Kat IPA is going to get somewhat of a bum rap after following the Westy 8. Absolutely no comparison, but no surprise there. I have some of the Westy 8 set aside for later. But I digress... Actually, this beer is still a pretty good IPA. I have no issues with Magic Hat brews. They are solid and respectable and always a bit different from the style cookie cutter. This beer is no exception and is very drinkable. It is golden orange in color with a slight toastiness, bittersweet citrus, and thick, frothy off-white lacing. There are notes of honey in the aroma and the flavor is floral with a dry, spicy-like finish (similar to a rye beer). This is a pretty good IPA with a moderate level of bitterness that sticks with you.
3/4 pint bottle (5.8% Alc./Vol. / Drink by: July 09 / Cap: "Undressing. Distressing or a Blessing?"). Rating #209 for this beer.
