This west coast style IPA has a deep golden color and a lightly malty body. Brewed with a variety of west coast hops including Centennial, Cascade, and CTZ, it offers a citrus forward hop profile with notes of grapefruit and a hint of florals. Dry hopping enhances the flavor and aroma while a blend of pale and crystal malts balance the hop bitterness for an easy drinking experience.

Pour is rather darker pale with a big bubbly head that fades to pond scum after a few minutes. Nose is sweet pine. First impression is that of a flat, mouthcoating, cloying beer with lots of hop bitter sweetness. Second big swig is the same. In the middle, this is not growing on me. But hey, I am not an IPA lover and if I thought it tasted good, it probably would not be a decent IPA. So though its a little sweet and cloying, I guess it is a terribly on style IPA. What else can be said, its a tick and there are over a quadrillion IPA out there, and they all virtually taste about the same. So much for the maturing of my palate. Blah.

Deep copper color, thick white head. Floral, earthy, evergreen and slightly citrusy aroma. Not as bitter tasting as expected based on aroma. Has a sweet malt backbone to start, comes in with an oily hop flavor and bitterness at the end and with a mild bitter aftertaste.

Funky wort-leaning malts with a modest grapefruit-orange zest-pine backbone. Weird, conjuring up memories of brewpub IPAs from the pre-hop-bomb early Aughts version of the style, which isn't exactly a period that holds much nostalgia for me.
