We’re going old school with this release and we’re bringing back the Classic West Coast IPA. This ale is brewed with superior pale malt, superior pilsner malt, wheat flakes, and a hint of crystal malt. Then hopped with an enormous amount of Amarillo, Chinook, and Citra hops. The result is an extremely hop forward beer with flavours and aromas of orange, grapefruit, melon, tropical fruit, and pine, which are complemented by a crisp bitterness and a subtle malt character.

473 ml can. Pours a dull amber with moderate head. Aromas of lupulin powder, mashed tropical fruit and wheaty malts. Flavors of pine, pineapple, citrus, and toasted malts. Bitter finish with some tea elements. Might be a bit old…

Hazy amber gold, small white head. Light piney nose. Meidum hop profile, lasting finish. More of a pale than an IPA

Okay clear orangey gold body and okay foam. Aroma is chewy tangy caramel and sweet hoppiness. Taste is mellow candied orange, soft caramel, ending smooth and good lingering sugar but a little wet. Drinkable, boring, definitely old school.

473mL can, pours a clear golden with a medium white head. Aroma is rather restrained, but brings out a nice, clean piney hop character, with crisp biscuity malt to back. Flavour is clean, crisp and assertive, with a nice grassy, piney hop bite upfront, and a crisp biscuity malt backbone. Biting, somewhat spicy, and crisp, though the body is a bit thin. Overall, clean, amply bitter and crisp. Solid.
