Vestkyst er eit så kraftig humla øl at dei fine, fruktige smaksnyansane frå den opne gjæringa blir meir kamuflerte. Maltblandinga av pale ale malt og to sortar karamellmalt er viktige for å balansere humlen. All humle blir tilsett siste halvtimen av kokinga, noko som løftar smak og aroma på ølet. Etter primærgjæringa blir ølet tørrhumla i tanken i 9 dagar med Amarillo, Cascade, Simcoe og Zeus, før det blir tappa på flasker og fat for naturleg karbonering. Vestkyst har henta namnet sitt frå amerikanske indiaøl og frå det faktum at Kinn Bryggeri er lokalisert i den vestlegaste byen i Noreg. Den kraftige humlesmaken står godt til krydra mat og faktisk også til pinnekjøt av lam. Prøv også Vestkyst til blåmuggost og til gulrotkake!

On tap @ Håndverkstuene. Hazy, dark orange body with a tiny off- head. Strong aroma of peaches, grapefruit, apricot and pine. Flavor is dominated by citric fruity bitterness, lots of bitterness, some caramel malt – and did I mention BITTER. Not particular complex, rather straightforward IPA, but very nice indeed as a refreshing thirst-quencher for the hophead. I like it a lot.

500ml draught at Håndverkerstuene where it was nicely served in a cognac glass and at the very right drinking temperature, that is lightly chilled. Just a small skinny trip of white foam at the surface and no lacing. Unclear, almost murky, orange coloured body. Deep fruity aroma with a mixture of pineapples and grapefruits. In-depth hoppy taste of grapefruits and citric shells added a peppery touch. Long-lived bittersweet ending. Full bodied and rather heavy to drink (Oslo, 31.08.2010).

Very small white head. Hazy amber body. Citric oily catnip aroma with tropical fruit and pineapple notes. Bitter-sweet wooden grapefruit and mango taste with wooden notes. Mid-bodied. Some astringency in mouthfeel. Dry-bitter fruity orangey floral aftertaste with strawy citric notes. Lovely. (0.33l draft at Haandverkerstuene, Oslo.)

Cask / hand pump at Nabokjelleren, Bergen, as Kinn Vestkyst India Øl. Served too warm (new cask). Very cloudy brown colour, moderate off-white head. Lovely hoppy aroma of tropical fruits and resin. Very bitter flavour, loads of resinous hops from start to finish, bordering on "overkill". Should satisfy any hophead.
