  IPA - West Coast Regular
Score
6.80
ABV: 7.0% IBU: - Ticks: 4
The true West Coast IPA, in which its lovely honeyed colour
brings notes with it of its resinous sweet malt layering, giving this beer a big backdrop with a
lile chewy laquer - but from there, its all about the hops. This is about big grapefruit, huge
doses of zesty lime & tangerine peel, pine needle-woodland oor and a pithy, biting edge.
A ready herbal bierness pulls back the sweeter malt and refreshes things and the nish is
bracing and clean with extremely muted esters

Clear golden amber with a lasting light egg shell white head.
Nose is orange zest, grass, pine needle, melon.

Keg @ Mackie Mayor, Manchester, aka Jack In The Box. Clear golden with a head. Hopped with some champagne style notes in the mix. Fairly undistinguished though.
