Sexy?

Big Sexy

Refined Fool Brewing Co.

6.8% Alcohol

When it comes to sexy the Refined Fool gang and I may not see eye to eye. To me the furry fellow on the can seems about as sexy as ear wax. Of course, when it comes to how you view your brew the old adage rings true. Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder. * One man’s amber may be another man’s bittersweet love lost, or they could be one in the same for that matter. I feel a digression coming on. I’m OK now. All under control.

As for our good friends at RF, when it comes to India Pale Ales, they are no fools, refined or otherwise. On many occasions they have demonstrated their adeptness in the fine art of the IPA. It was a hazy hats off to their Hat Day was Cancelled. And their Physical Inactivity was right up our alley. Time to see if Big Sexy is big tasty.

A golden citrus glow of a pour with what some would say is a sexy froth of a bright white topper. An aroma of citrus tropical with some hops and malt for good measure. This is a West coast toast for sure. A tropical smoothie with some hops and bitters too. It’s all happening. A balanced big swigger, I’m not sure about the sexy but it is big and juicy and quite enjoyable.

You would have to be a fool (refined or otherwise) to find the fur faced fellow on the can sexy, but one thing this beer is, is big, juicy and tasty.**

*Editor’s Comment: Once again our reviewer has butchered another time honoured idiom. The phrase “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder” can be found in the bible Psalms 40:5 but its origins go back further. Plato in 3rd century BC said “Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.”

**Editor’s Comment: I believe that is three things that the beer is. Most likely there are more things it is as well.

Final Rating: A Big Sexy Sixteen out of 20
