569. Metazoa Brewing Co. (Indianapolis, IN) - Black-Tie Optional

“For this can collaboration, Metazoa Brewing Co. is donating 5% of can sales to the Indianapolis Zoo in honor of Indianapolis Prize Winner, Dr. Pablo Borboroglu, and his work with penguin species. Black-Tie Optional honors the Magellanic penguin and its successful conservation story. This South African penguin is always dressed in black and white because its feather pattern is a form of camouflage. Black-Tie Optional is a crisp & refreshing Cold IPA that’s dressed up enough to impress, yet casual enough to enjoy in any setting."

Light flavors of stone fruit up front, with a dry finish. Oddly unremarkable for a Metazoa joint.
