473mL can, pours a lightly hazed golden with a medium white head. Aroma is quite restrained, with some tropical juiciness, citrus hops, and sweet malts underneath. Flavour is less so juicy and more just like a straight-forward, moderately bitter WCIPA. There’s some citrus peel, a touch of pine, maybe gentle juiciness undergirding it, and a thin biscuity malt base. I’m glad this “juicy IPA” was not another chalky hazy but closer to a standard westie. Good but a bit underwhelming.

473ml can. Pours a cloudy yellow orange with a large, frothy, long lasting, white head that leaves sticky curtains of soapy lace. Sweet fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, tangerine, peach, pineapple and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, grapefruit, mango, peach, pineapple, passionfruit and light piney hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Juicy and easy to drink.
