West Coast IPA brewed with Mosaic, Simcoe & Krush

Like the legendary gunslinger trilogy, a true West Coast IPA that doesn't mess around - very dry, bitter, and hop-forward.

Simcoe, Mosaic, and Krush hops draw their pistols at high noon.

500ml can. Minimally milky, brass colour with small to average, fluffy, moderately lasting and lacing, white head. Citrusy fruity, hoppy aroma, pale and slightly crystal malty background, hints of orange and pineapple with slight jelly bear touch. Taste is mildly bitter, leafy and slightly citrusy fruity hoppy, minimally spicy, pale malty basis, hints of pineapple, a touch of lemon.
Oily texture, smooth, soft, slightly greasy, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium, dense, foamy, mildly prickly carbonation.
Nice oily texture, but neither really crisp or (re-)fresh(ing) nor fruity - so-so.

Tap at Goblet. Allllmost crystal clear golden body, off-white, thick head. Soft resinous aroma, light onion touch. Lean, sweetish resinous taste, bit floral, lightly herbal, oniony notes, nice light bitterness. Really nothing flashy at all, but it does its job fine!

On tap at Goblet Zagreb. Clear pale golden coloured, medium sized white head, piney and light fruity nose. Piney, light resiny, fruity and bit herbal with rather bitter finish. Slightly sweet but well done.

Canned, 500 ml in Ambasada. Hazy yellow with medium white head. Hoppy, some pine, grassy, resinous, nice lasting bitter finish. More bitterness would be nice, but it's nice as it is.
