West Coast Double IPA
Hops: Simcoe, Idaho 7, Citra, & Citra Cryo
The original brew in our Bonsai West Coast series is back! Black Pine celebrates the pure flavors of Pacific Northwest hops and the authentic bitterness of a West Coast IPA. Idaho 7, Simcoe, and Citra Cryo hops shine through this crystal clear and golden-colored DIPA, producing fresh scents of peach, resin, and orange zest. Tastes of cantaloupe, lemon, and dank are balanced by a lingering bitterness that you'll want to savor time and time again.

Pint can pours with a crystal clear gold colored body that supports a white head of foam. The aroma offers up cantaloupe, a bit of guava, orange marmalade and a sense of pineapple. The taste delivers a pleasing blend of juicy fruity hop flavor and hop bitterness. I get orange marmalade, grapefruit and a hit of tangelo flowing into some softer cantaloupe and faint guava tropical fruity notes. Yep. Solid balance that will please the masses. Let's go.
