Our non-alcoholic West Coast IPA is a tribute to our back yard and its rich history of making damn good beers. Its Cascade hops are an ode to the beers that started the IPA revolution. The rich malt backbone provides ample structure for the grapefruit Cascade notes to shine.

12 oz can poured. Darker copper orange pour, almost amber, with lots of foam head. Tasty IPA here overall, dense with malt flavors that lean on the bready side. Gentle bitter front, some pine, that grows and lasts ok the palate. Has a very old school west coast IPA feel to it. Flavorful and doesn't have some of the distinct features other NA brews have that give their status away. Nice super duper session IPA here.

12 oz. can sent by brewers rep for comment. This pours darker than their Kölsch style. An amber color with a bit of haze, and tall, rocky head. The smell has a note of west coast resiny hop, but there is a bit of that metallic note that wasn’t in the Kölsch. Just a bit. The taste is still kind of off-balance. Hoppy beers don’t always work out without some alcohol to support them. Unlike the Kölsch, this has some soapy side notes that take me out of the IPA zone. Bitterness builds up as I go through the glass, giving it some redemption at the end.
