A West Coast inspired rush of dayglow blades scorched by hovering halos. Chinook, Centennial, and Simcoe hops come together in a salvo of citrus, pine, and floral notes. Bright and invigorating, an IPA to fill you with feeling.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: glossy yellow with a sly transpancy about it and a one finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave light lace
Aroma: lots of piney hops with a secondary level of citrusy hops and some bitter floral hops a bit further down in there, subtle clean biscuity malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine bittersweet very "West coast" like bitterness; finishes briskly with the piney and citrusy hop vibes
Texture: medium bodied, some sessionability, some smoothness but also some firm hop aggression but twas expected yet it was also a good hop aggression
Overall: probably one of the closest true "West coast" styled IPA's I've had by an East coast brewer.

Pours a slightly hazy, golden-banana yellow, with mid-sized head. Aroma is grassy, with some touches of citrus, pine/spruce hops. Flavor follows. Finish is rather bitter, with lots of hops. West coast style IPA.
