Alleycat Amber Ale

Alleycat Amber Ale

Alleycat Amber Ale is a product of Lost Coast Brewery & Cafe in Eureka, California. I picked up a six-pack of this last week at Gail's Hops and Grapes to try out. This beer has a nice copper color and the head retention is rather poor overall. The beer has an excellent aroma along with a nice crisp flavor... definitely another good summertime beer with a medium body. They definitely get an A+ in the label design department... I wish all brewers spent this much effort on their labels :)  I would have also preferred a bottle without the twist-off top type so I can reuse it in my own homebrewing...
