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.

12 oz. bottle without any bottling code. Purchased at Julio’s. Orange / amber color with soapy lacing. Aroma is mostly pine with light notes of floral and grapefruit type hops.
The flavor is herbal pine, caramel malt, very weak traces of citrus. The texture is on the chewy, bready character with a solid pine bitterness. No ABV noticeable and has a lengthy bitter bite. Pretty classic West Coast DIPA. For not knowing the age of the bottle, this is solid.

Amber with thick head. Fruity and spicy aroma. Very bitter, some fruit hiding behind.

Tap at Birreria Paradiso. Bright golden color, thick white head. Massive hops aroma and massive bitterness, too much for my taste. Unbalanced.

Flaska från SB. Bärnstensfärgad vätska med fingerhögt skum. Dofter av ananas, citrus, kåda och lite tobak. Silkesmjuk och gräddig munkänsla. Sötman matchar utan problem beskan. Kanske lite trött i humledoften, annars en ok DIPA.

Bottle. Pours slightly hazy with small off-white head. Clear aroma of hops, malt and fruit, with touches of yeast. Bitter, hoppy flavour, with round, sweet malty and fruity notes ans touches of citrus and yeast. Bitter and citric aftertaste. Good.

Orangish amber with nice fluffy head, soft hoppy aroma, taste is more tart and bitter, pine notes on the finish. Nice sharp DIPA (west coast style)
