This week, we’re back in the Nutmeg State to sample a round of purr-fect IPAs! Fat Orange Cat is a small, farmhouse brewery out of East Hampton, CT. Mike Klucznik and Sheila Mullen run the small-batch, experimental “test kitchen” from their barn while working with Twelve Percent Beer Project to distribute their most popular brews. They’ve developed quite a reputation, both for their quality New England IPAs and for their proud commitment to supporting local agriculture. We dedicate this episode to Billy, the original fat orange cat. Meow.
Featured beers: Baby Kittens, “I Don’t Like Mondays” IPA, “Keep Yer Claws Sharp” and “Traffic Lights Turn Blue Tomorrow” DIPA. Plus: Want to hear cats singing the National Anthem?
