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.

Can at home, from HOTM online, 16/08/21. Moderately hazed orange golden with a good sized just off white cap, carbonation well evident. Nose is orange pith, pine needle, light floral elements, grass, melon, grapefruit. Taste comprises bitter orange, pine dusting, grass, grapefruit, mixed tropical fruits, citric tinged straw, faint minerality. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spiked with balanced lightly aggressive grassy come juicy hop bitterness. Decent clean and easy drinking IPA ...gets the WC vibe across.
