Named after Coronado Island, our original India Pale Ale is a liquid expression of hometown pride. Centennial, Chinook and Columbus hops combine to provide an explosive burst of piney bitterness and luscious notes of apricot, grapefruit and mango that are sure to evoke imagery of swaying palms and sun-kissed shores.

Light yellow, high carbonation but almost no remaining head. Pine aroma. Some grapefruit taste but more mango and passion fruit. Nice bitterness.

Flaska från SB. Ljus bärnstensfärgad vätska med vitt skum. Intensiva toner av grape, kåda och säd. Kraftig beska som balansetar mot maltsötma. Fyllig munkänsla. Medellång eftersmak.

Flaska från SB. Klar gyllengul vätska med ganska lågt skum. Stor, gruktig och söt doft med ananas, grape, mango, men även tall. Rena smaker, karamell, smörkola, grape, mango, tall, måttlig beska. Bra balans. En välgjord och mycket stiltypisk västkust-IPA som jag tycker var riktigt trevlig.

Whole Foods, Bowery 12oz ($2): Pours orange with white head. Aroma is mainly tropical fruit with some resin; I didn’t get that much pine in the taste. Taste is very tropical fruity heavy. Hops are flavorful, but not very bitter. Very West Coast, obviously. Well-balanced and easy drinking. A fairly good, but standard West Coaster.

Smak och doft av humle, malt, mango, aprikos, citrus, grapefrukt. Torr, lagom söt med en tydlig beska med smak av grapefrukt och tall. Tycker snarare det är en APA än en IPA. Bra balans, stabil, en bra öl helt enkelt.

Clear golden colour, white head. Aroma of bread, hops, pineapple, citrus, quite floral. Hoppy bitter flavour, yeast and bread. Finish bread, yeast and hops. Decent brew.
