MATILDA BAY FAT YAK

The matilda bay fat yak. one of my personal favourites, and again I'd had the pleasure of trying this before.The first thing that strikes you is the rich, amber colour of this brew. If this doesnt get your mouth watering, i don't know what will.

As this is of the same family as the little creatures pale ale, a comparison can't be helped. the flavourours and aromas; a very floral one, are not as obvious as in the little creatures pale ale but are still very refreshing. a distinct hoppy falvour is present and after an initial guess that there was a cascade hop in there ( remember im an amatuer)  and after much research i was right. After working with cascade hops for a while now ive come to recognise the disting citrus aroma of cascade hops and have used them as a general all rounder. coupled with the citrus aroma, there is also a subtle matly aroma that compliments it and makes for a very pleasant smelling beer.

This is a beer that i hve on many occasions contemplated just a 6-pack for pre-drinks before a night out but thankfully decided to grab a slab and every time i finish it i long for my next trip to the shops to replenish. I highly recomend this beer . in most liquor stores such as Dan Murphy's and 1st Choice this beer is around $10 cheaper than the little creatures pale ale but this does not mean it's by any stretch of the imagination that it is not enjoyable!
