Popular West Coast IPA with thick, frothy, egg-white, coarse, fairly stable head leaving ’membranous’ lacing on the edge of the glass and warm ’canary yellow’ blonde colour, lightly hazy with bits of yeast floating around everywhere. Dank, very fragrant aroma of lime zest, lemon blossoms, spruce shoots, lush tropical flowers, biscuit, dry cookies, cantaloupe, sweet white wine, hemp, chamomille, dried bell peppers, stewed beef, yellow Zespri kiwi, faint hint of banana. Crisp, fruity onset, a tad more estery than usual for the style with accents of bitter orange, unripe green plum and sweetish banana and granadilla, olive-like umami accent, minerally lining with medium strong carbo, lean and supple body with lightly bready and equally lightly biscuity pale malt sweetishness upon which an increasingly aromatic and increasingly drying hoppiness is built, attacking the back of the mouth with an oily, herbal, leafy bitterness and retronasal spruce and citrus peel aromas, close to stopping any juicy malt sweetness - which is very limited to begin with - to creep through. A bit paler and therefore more dry in terms of maltiness than is custom for the substyle perhaps, but in all respects an accomplished and exemplary American IPA, with a very pleasantly structured hop profile. I’m wondering if the classic association between IPA and pizza in the Anglo-Saxon world has got something to do with this...
