Baykeeper IPA is a bright and delicious San Francisco-style IPA, overflowing with juicy and fruit-forward hop layers that finish crisp and dry. Teeming with lime, orange zest and papaya aromas, it has a slightly spicy, yet slightly sweet taste that finishes with a delicate bitterness. Calypso, El Dorado, Cascade and Amarillo Cryo hops were used to amplify the fruity and piney hop aromatics in this slightly hazy brew.

Trivia: San Francisco Bay, one of the world’s most impressive natural waterways and one of California’s most important ecosystems. San Francisco Baykeeper, a local nonprofit, works nonstop to keep it that way. This beer is brewed to celebrate their accomplishments and 30th anniversary.

Canned August 17th and it just now showed up in a mixed 12 pack?

Pours a slightly hazy pale gold with a large billowy head of foam that lasts.

I get noticeable notes of piney hops in the smell, some fruitiness, and a rather substantial malt presence.

The taste is almost as malty as it is hoppy. Nice notes of pine, fruity, more than solid taste of malt that reminds me of an English style IPA..like the late Bridgeport IPA. Love the mild sweetness.

Smooth as silk mouthfeel.

Cool that this was in the pack so I could try it. It is right up my alley for a balanced IPA.

Közepes, tartós hab, narancssárga szín. Citrusos, fűszeres illat. Citrusos, citrushéjas, fűszeres ízek, némi barackos beütéssel. Közepesen testes, közepesen szénsavas és keserű. Tisztességesen összerakott sör, de emmi kiemelkedő.

(Draught at Beer Tempel, Amsterdam, 26 Aug 2019) Golden amber colour with creamy, white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with citrus, orange peel, resin and apricots. Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of citrus, orange peel, resin and a balanced herbal/resiny bitterness. More than medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Tasty and well balanced. Quite nice.

Bottle. Wine Rack, Sharrow, Sheffield. Pale gold. Light haze. Fully lacing, lasting, leggy, white head. Looks great. Nose has loads of pine sap and pine cone. Plenty of floral herb. It’s punchy, no question. Taste has a thick grain sweetness, but is mostly piny, herbal bitter. Medium body. Nicely oily. Fine carbonation. Lingering, herbal bitterness to finish. Nice.
