A classic West Coast IPA, Califia is pale, dry, richly hopped and potent. Its enticing aroma comes from fresh American hops, which made the revival of craft brewery possible first in the USA, influencing the Old Continent later. A citrusy bomb of fragrances: grapefruit, oranges, lemons and limes, followed by a nice balanced malt sweetness.
Our goal here was to capture the spirit of California, home to the West Coast IPAs – hence the name. It’s one of our most time- and effort-consuming brews; each batch brings a new discovery. We want you to experience the unique, zesty aroma of American hops to the very last drop. If you’re after a pint of something strong, dry, bitter but very, very aromatic – Califia is definitely for you.

Idealnie klarowne, gęsta piana. W aromacie cytrusy, tropiki. Ogolnie typowo, oldschoolowo. W smaku podobnie, chmielowo, cytrusowo, trochę białych i zielonych owoców. Calkiem wytrawne. Wysycenie ok. Goryczka srednia. Piwo przyzwoite, choc bez zachwytu.

Bottle. Pours hazy amber with stable white head. Clear aroma of hops and citrus, with estery and malty touches. Bitter flavour of hops and grass, with sweetish flavour of yeast and malt, and touches of fruit. Bitter, grassy and estery aftertaste. Decent. Well-balanced and tasty.

Im Glas strömt schon mal ein intensiver Geruch nach frischen Früchten wie Mandarine, Zitrone und Weintraube. Dazu ein par frische Grasnoten, die fast schon ins Vermouth-artige geht. Es ist schön spritzig und nicht zu bitter, was es schön trinkbar macht. Hat mir wirklich gut gefallen.

17/VI/20 - 50cl bottle @ ElManana’s place, BB: 16/XII/20 (2020-526) Thanks to ElManana+1 for sharing the bottle!
Clear blond beer, small creamy aery irregular yellowish head, little stable, bit adhesive. Aroma: malty, some caramel, tropical fruits, dank hops, some sweaty feet, a bit cheesy. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: nice and bitter, bit resinous, citrus, tropical fruits, grapefruit, more fruity notes. Aftertaste: very bitter, good stuff, resinous, some orange peel, dank, tropical fruits, good beer!
