Brand new, you’re retro... Wizard Motor brings back some classic old school vibes with that West Coast IPA flavour.
Juicy grapefruit, orange, hints of pine... and all on a solid malt base and balance that screams drinkability!
Wizard Motor doffs its hat to those influential Californian and the Pacific Northwest beers that drove craft beer growth over the last 20 years and inspired this next generation.
Drive in, roll up, or do whatever you have to do. Just get to the front of the line for this tasty beer.

Can from lowcostbeer, consumed 1 month before BBE. Light hazy amber-gold with moderate sized white head, nice lasting top. Aroma of stone fruits, orange, grapefruit, some earthiness. Taste is quite mellow with caramel, orange, grapefruit and some pine resin, modest bitterness for the style. Nice smooth body and soft carbonation. More of a mellow take on a West Coast IPA but very pleasant to drink.

330ml can at Farmers Bar, Avenue K, Kuala Lumpur. Poured a murky light amber colour with a short-lived, frothy white head. The aroma is malt and big orange citrus. The flavour is moderate bitter, light sweet, with a fresh, dry, crisp, malt, juicy orange, tart grapefruit, light floral, hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

330ml can: BB March 2022. Drank at home on 3rd April 2022, so a month out of date. Clear golden body until the sediment came out at the end; it ended up a cloudy orange with an off-white head. Citrussy with a grapefruit front and an orange like undertone. Decent!

330ml can. Slightly cloudy, orangey golden colour with average to huge, thick, firm, creamy, moderately to mostly lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Piney and slightly citrusy, hoppy, caramel and pale malty aroma, notes of pineapple, hints of grapefruit, lemon, mildly funky yeasty overtones. Taste is dry, citrusy fruity and piney, hoppy, pale and caramel malty without residual sweetness, hints of grapefruit, bitter orange, lemon, a slight jelly bear touch, some zesty aspects. Watery texture, smooth, minimally dry palate, fine, soft carbonation. Old School but not that explicit West Coast IPA - OK, not particularly exciting.
