536. Moontown Brewing Company (Whitestown, IN) - Cecil

“Our flagship IPA is made with 100% local Sugar Creek malt (Lebanon, IN) and oats. This juicy number was inspired by our early pilgrimages to Vermont and features a nice, healthy haze with layers and layers of delicious hop character.”

This one calls itself an IPA, and also comes from oats, but is higher in ABV (6.8%) and, oddly, smoother than Bam Bam; and it works in a way that Bam Bam doesn’t, probably because they shot for an IPA and got it, whereas with Bam Bam they tried for the middle ground between a session and an IPA and didn’t quite get either one.
