It doesn’t take a genius to know quality West Coast IPAs require a stupid amount of hops. A generous blend of Nugget hops and the four Cs—Cascade, Centennial, Chinook and Columbus—brings forth a myriad of tropical fruit flavors and a brawny, persistent bitterness that makes for a highly intelligent brew.

Keg at Brewdog Soho. Vague floral grassy aroma. Burnt orange. Dark amber. Slightly hazy. Thin white head. Sweet core with a light bitter over the top. Thick bodied. Sticky. Soft carb. Slightly astringent burn in the finish. Hides the ABV well. Restrained but at the same time you know you’re drinking it, whatever the fuck that means.

Narancsos szín, közepes, tartós hab. Déligyümölcsös, túlérett mandarinos-narancsos illat. Déligyümölcsös, citrusos, fenyős ízek. Közepesen testes, közepesen szénsavas, erősen keserű. A keserűt jól ellenpontozaa a gazdag gyümölcsössége. Nagyon finom, jó egyensúllyal rendelkező IPA.

Bottle. Pours almost clear golden. Aroma is chewing gum, resin, tropical fruit. Body is medium, strongly bitter, lots of resin flavour. Decent residual sweetness. Long palate, fruity. Good, probably a bit too old.
