West Coast IPA
Gluten-free craft IPA that keeps the full spirit and flavor of the West Coast. A golden, almost crystal-clear beer brewed with Simcoe, Ekuanot, and Mosaic hops that bring their signature: intense aroma, freshness, and that touch of bitterness that keeps you coming back.
Freebird unfolds notes of pine resin, a delicate fruity veil, and a clean texture with a medium body. A dry, bitter finish brings balance and leaves a lingering trail.
Brewed for those who move light—gluten-free and fearless. Always flying free.

Color dorado claro con un ligero velo, espuma blanca de retención media. Aroma y sabor herbal y círico, con agradables notas de pino y resina, algo chispeante en boca, cuerpo medio con cierta sensación sedosa, final amargote y resinoso. Una clásica, auténtica y sólida west coast IPA, deja un recuerdo delicioso en boca, cojonuda.

Lattina. Il naso vira verso il luppolo. La finezza olfattiva è elevata, permanendo in maniera sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana media. Il liquido appare velato. Il colore è giallo dorato. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è intenso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la persistenza è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il retrogusto è intenso. Sulla lingua si attestano sentori di miele, crosta di pane, frutta secca, luppolo, resina, pino, frutto della passione, frutta tropicale, limone, lime, uva spina, mandarino e pesca sciroppata.
