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!

(Bottle) Amber colour with big, frothy, tan head. Hoppy, fruity nose with notes of caramel, dried fruit, apricots, orange peel, pine needles, tropical fruit and toast. Malty, hoppy taste with dried fruit, caramel, apricots, pink grapefruit, orange peel, pine needles, gooseberries, ripe mango and a generous piney, citric bitterness in the finish. Medium body, quite dry. Lots of hops and malt to match it. Really tasty, solid and well made IPA. Very nice.

330ml bottle. Cloudy, dark amber colour with average to huge, firm, frothy, moderately to mostly lasting, moderately lacing, off-white head. Citrusy hoppy and caramel malty aroma, notes of grapefruit, lemon, orange, tangerine, some grassy hoppy interludes. Taste is crisp, bitter, citrusy hoppy and dry, caramel malty, little residual sweetness, notes of grapefruit, hints of lemon, tangerine, some orange, a minimally husky touch; lingering bitter hoppy finish. Minimally watery texture, fine, prickly carbonation.

Draught, at KCBD19. Mild fruity aroma. Cloudy amber colour. Very big stable creamy white head. The flavour is caramelly with a clean bitterness. Creamy mouthfeel. Teaish finish, probably from the hops.

Big ole 7-fiddy bottle picked up by Mrs Scopey in Norge. It pours clearish deep / dark amber with and orangey hue and thick foamy off - white head. The aroma is fresh, perfumed, piney action aplenty, resinous, lemon sherbet zing and some marmalade. The taste is dry, bitter, resinous, fresh pine, green, light peppery spice, lemon verbena, touch of sherbet, some underlying malty sweetness, orange marmalade, tangerine and peach with some booze also with a lingering bitter - dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Nice fresh old school West Coast vibes. Moreish.
