Sensory Description
The aroma bursts with ripe apricot, sweet peach, and subtle floral orange blossom, all supported by hints of resinous pine and citrus peel. On the palate, flavors of juicy passionfruit, peach, and soft lemon meringue dominate before transitioning to gentle undertones of pine and peppery spruce. A balanced finish introduces a whisper of sugar cookie sweetness and light malt character, wrapping the experience in a soft, velvety mouthfeel. Full-bodied yet refreshingly drinkable, this beer avoids overwhelming bitterness, instead delivering a smooth, fruit-forward profile with clean carbonation and a mellow alcohol presence.

Brewer's Background
Fat Orange Cat Brew Co. was founded in 2016 by Mike Klucznik and Sheila Mullen in East Hampton, Connecticut. Named after the couple's beloved orange-and-white cat, Billy, the brewery started as a backyard barn operation where Klucznik showcased his award-winning homebrews. Early adopters of the hazy IPA trend, the brewery quickly gained a following, and today, their beers are brewed through the Twelve Percent Beer Project in North Haven. The original farm brewery remains a creative pilot space where innovation thrives, blending a love for animals, craft beer, and community.

Serving Suggestions
Serve 'Baby Kittens' NE IPA chilled at 45–50°F in a tulip or IPA glass to highlight its aromas and velvety texture. Pair it with grilled chicken tacos topped with mango salsa, creamy risottos, or a platter of sharp cheddar and goat cheese. For dessert, try it alongside vanilla bean ice cream or light shortbread cookies to complement its soft, fruity notes.
