Like driving down the coast of California, our smooth and easy IPA envelopes you with relaxing notes of pine trees and the crisp feeling of the Pacific Ocean. Bold notes of California citrus come from generously dry hopping this refreshing brew with modern American hops. Take a drink and remember what you love about a West Coast IPA. Because even if you choose the East, it doesn’t mean you can’t rest in the West.

(Bottle, taster, Stockholm Beer & Whisky Festival, 4 Dec 2021) Golden amber colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, hoppy nose with mango, orange, pineapple, tropical fruit and pine needles. Fruity, hoppy taste with notes of tropical fruit, mango, pineapple, orange peel, apricots and a balanced citric, tropical bitterness. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Tasty and refreshing. Very nice.

330ml can at the Beer Bank, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a slightly hazy golden colour with a mostly lasting frothy white head. The aroma is malt and piney hops. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a malt, citrus fruit, light grassy, floral hop bitter palate and a long bitter finish. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Not too shabby!
