As a macro pale lager aficionado, I find quite humorous how IPA lovers describe the terribly on style taste of this style. You know, its a real man's kinda beer! This pounder can pours slight haze on an orange yellow pale background. Maybe some green grapefruit on the olfactory. First taste is what else but en-vogue typical straight up ass IPA design of inelegance and gracelessness. Its coarseness, crudeness and bitter tastefulness is utter vulgarity. In the middle I find its medicinal character clumsy garish tacky and unrefined. Its nasty kitsch crudeness and grotesqueness will be glitz for any IPA expert and judge in matters of IPA. A rude ass taste. After my first real IPA experience, all my beer friends on RB said my palate would eventually mature enough to like IPA. Well, its been 59 year, I don't think its gonnah happen. There, you have it. Finish is intense, bitter, long and ill mannered. Will somebody get me a clean cold macro lager for a chaser? Just asking.

Opalescent pale golden colour, minimal creamy ecru-ish white head; aroma of grapefruit, pine resiny, some lemon zesty and grassy notes; hoppy taste with the same notes as can be felt in the aroma with some fruity sweetness; correct IPA

Coronado Island, winding down. Feb 2024. Mostly hazy, golden honey pour. Dank, apple nose with a bit of pineapple. Sweet pineapple, bitter kale, mineral water, bit of lime rind on the tail. Harsh upfront but turns mellow. Medium carb. A little too thin & vapid. Okay.
