Day 244: Angry Angel


Name: Angry Angel
Brewer: Big Boss Brewing Co. (Raleigh, NC) 
Classification: Kolsch
Alcohol: 4.5%

Thoughts: I snuck out of work early today to go catch the NC State vs UVA game because I have a case of the March Madness. I decided to hit up a local sports bar that has a great selection of local NC beers. I ended up selecting Angry Angel from Big Boss which poured this sparkling straw yellow with an airy white head. The aroma was minimal but pale malts and a small amount of hoppy perfume are noticable in the nose. The flavor is extremely clean and balanced. Some grainy malts and floral hops create a base layer of taste. The finish has a little spice and a little pine in it. The feel is very light bodied and drinkable. I had three of these pretty quickly without any buzz or desire to switch to another beer. This is a great beer to sit back and enjoy on a hot summer day. It wasn't very hot yesterday, but it was still very enjoyable. It also shows off the range of beers Big Boss has been able to nail down. Plus, NC State won and moved on to play UNC tomorrow. Both the beer and the basketball went well. 

Rating: 84/100
