Counterstrike: 6.8% West Coast IPA. There are times for mellow beers. And there are times for an absolute banger of a West Coast IPA. Krush, Mosaic, Citra and Talus Lupomax bring all the zesty citrus notes, creating a beautiful explosion of orange, mango and pine held together with a bitter backbone.

0.44 can. Jópofa dobozban egy opálos, szalma színű sör nagyon fehér, de nem túl nagy habbal. Aroma: exotikus gyümölcs mix, őszibarack, mangó, stb... Nagyon jó. Test: átlagos; közepes vagy inkább gyengébb szénsavasság. Doboz szerint ütős íz, precíz finish. Valami van benne, de nekem vizes. Finom, jó komlózás, érződik is a gyümölcsösség a komloktol, de én még tettem volna bele többet. Ugyanezekből... Lecsengés keserűség és erős élesztő... Amúgy finom sör, nyáron bármennyit (...6,8%... szóval nem) még lehetne inni. :)

Iridescent gold with a rapidly falling white head. Fruity aroma, passion fruit, peach, some citrus and pine. Pleasant, fruity flavour, followed by a more pronounced grapefruit zest and pine bitterness. Medium body, delicate resinous oiliness, low carbonation. Pleasant, but more for mass conscripts than elite forces.

Med-thin body, med-light carbo. Med-light oxidation too, stalish caramelly backbone. Med bitterness, light sweetness. Med-light citrusy hops. Overall pretty simple, basic. Good, drinkable, nothing to write home about.
