Going to school at Michigan, Arbor Brewing is right down the street. ABC offers a wide variety of beers to suit all tastes. I have always been a fan of IPAs, so naturally I found myself drinking Sacred Cow.
Sacred Cow strikes a nice balance between hops a malt, and tastes darker than it is. Unlike other IPAs, the cascade hops do not overwhelm the beer, but provide a nice floral aroma. I was expecting a kick of citrus but was it never really came through. This copper colored ale finishes with the trademark IPA bitterness, though may not appeal big IPA fans, as it lacks the flavor profile of many other IPAs.
Honky Kong Says: 7.7/10 - Solid
