Cerveza Chica; I have to say that everything that I have tried from Three Floyds thus far has been more positive than negative. This was another beer that worked for me . For and American Pale Ale it was hoppy but not overly bitter and there was just enough malt to back it up. It was very light and easy to drink. It was definitely solid for a pale ale. I would recommend this if you can get your hands on some although unfortunately we don’t get it in Florida. I could easily put back a few of these without even realizing it and that is fine with me.
Score:3.77

The Ferm: Well like every other beer I will have to judge this beer in comparison to other Pale Ales. The label has the Alpha King like bathing in his beer. I think I could bathe in this beer as well. It really is one of the most balanced Pale Ales I have had. The hops are strong on the attack, and the malt backing is strong enough to support it. There is a strong citrus attack, and the beer ends with a nice dry roasty taste on the palette. Category wise, I’d have to say it is pretty damn good!
