This Beer was brewed to save your palate from the heavy foods and sweet pastries that come with Christmas. The Beer is dry and crisp, as a west coast IPA should be, and with an assertive bitterness. This years version is hopped with Centennial, Chinook, and Columbus hops for a dank, citrusy, and piney hop character. God Jul!

440ml can, #613, bought at Vinmonopolet Langnes. Pours a near-clear golden-yellowish body under a stable, bubbly white head leaving clingy lacing down the glass. Promising citrus aromas, lemon and grapefruit, mid-dry. Tasty with a fine blend of citrus, herbal hops and soft malty backbone. Pine needles to a nice bitter fruity finish. Well bodied. Good drinking. (Tromsø, 01.01.2024).

Can. 2023 vintage. A clear pale golden colored beer with a small white head. Piney, perfumed aroma with a touch of pale malts. It’s dry and full-bodied, with a good bitterness. Pine cones, citrus zest, some orange and a touch of pale malts in the flavor. Medium length finish. A summer beer, nothing related to Christmas going on here, except a touch of orange. Nice though. 231125

440 ml can, as Salikatt Christmas on Fire West Coast IPA, from Vinmonopolet Sola. Vintage is not printed on the can, but the ABV is 7.5%, so it must be the 2023. Slightly hazy golden colour, moderate white head. Pleasant aroma of orange marmalade and citric hops, a hint of woodwork. The flavour is slightly on the dry side, notes of bitter oranges, pine needles and resinous bittering hops. --- Beer merged from original tick of Christmas On Fire West Coast IPA (2023) on 21 Nov 2023 at 00:02 - Score: Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 8 | Flavor - 7.5 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 7.5.

0,44 boks fra julenissens utsalg på Kilden, hjemme. Til 22-utgaven noterte jeg bl.a. citrus (særlig grapefrukt)og furunål/eukalyptus som hovedelementer. I år finner jeg i tillegg litt beske urter, kvae og hint av pepper. Tørrere enn i fjor og bitterheten er solid, men det er også maltkroppen. Som alltid hos Salikatt har den et tydelig preg av mersmak, utseendet er upåklagelig, og vitamininnholdet varmer i skrotten. Hurra for min rating nr. 200 fra dette kvalitetsbryggeriet!
