This week on The Best Beer I Drank This Week, Brian from the Buffalo Beer League cracks into his first featured beer from Griffon Brewing—and it’s a juicy powerhouse. Tai Cheetah is an Imperial New England IPA clocking in at 8% ABV, brewed with a blend of Centennial, Mosaic, El Dorado, and Galaxy hops.

Bursting with flavor, Tai Cheetah serves up bold notes of mandarin, white peach, apricot, and stone fruit, with a smooth body that somehow hides that high ABV a little too well. Brian breaks down the tasting experience, why this beer stands out among Griffon’s lineup, and how it pairs perfectly with backyard hangs, fridge restocks, and maybe a few questionable decisions.

Also in this episode:

• Why Tai Cheetah won’t get lost in the back of your fridge
• Thoughts on Griffin’s other beers (like their Kellerbier and Full Nelson)
• A shoutout to Magic Bear and Consumers Beverages for stocking Griffon cans
