A big West Coast IPA, brewed with 100% Maris Otter malt, hopped on the hot side with Simcoe, Centennial and Chinook. Huge dry hop with Simcoe, Chinook, Citra and Colombus varieties for classic pine resin, grapefruit and citrus notes. Pithy!

440ml can. Hazy golden with a white head, looking more like a NEIPA in the glass. Aroma of citrus fruits, orange, grapefruit, pine. Taste is very citrusy, orange, grapefruit, loads of resinous pine, some sweet caramel and other pale malts, but the finish is nice and bitter. Full bodied. This is such a great westie, best I've had in ages.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from BS online. Pours mostly clear yellow-gold with a creamy, white head. Medium sweet flavour, nice piney resin, citrus fruits, pale bread, tangerine, melon. Medium to full bodied with fine carbonation. Nicely balanced finish, more lightly oily pine, clean pale malts, tangerine, mango, melon. Super well balanced. Wildly drinkable, great depth.

Can from The Fuss Club. Hazy orange pour with a white head. Piney, grapefruit aromas, slightly floral. Pithy orange, pine, grapefruit, white grape, lime & tropical fruit flavours. Humungously zesty fruity aftertaste.
