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!

750ml bottle from Oslo Airport. Darker orange pour, somewhat cloudy and really thick and long-lasting foamy head there. Thin bubbles, super persistent. Really nice fresh nose, somewhat flowery, fruity and tropical nose, light citrus and a bit of resiny flower soap. Tastes fruity, really classical hard IPA, good base bitterness and relatively thick and chewy body. Slick finish, pretty good stuff, nothing too amazing but solid and does deliver.

Bottled 750ml. -Unclear golden coloured, medium sized off-white head, citrusy nose. Moderate malty, caramel, citrusy fruity, light herbal hops and rather strong bitterness with some odd sweet and sticky notes in the finish. Unbalanced.

Bottle at Matija's farewell party. Thanks Vito for sharing! Hazy murky amber body. Taste... citrus fruit, mandarin really on a caramelly malty background. Mandarin shows up in the taste too, backed by a nice smooth caramelly maltiness. Quite well carbonated, perhaps gives out a light burn too. Nice.

Shared bottle at home (Salz’ visit New Years Eve 2017). Pours hazy dark amber with big beige head. Aroma of citrus, tropical fruit, pine needles, caramel. Taste very bitter and slightly sweet. Medium to strong bodied, slightly smooth mouth feel.

Brought by Ico from one of his trips. Shared with some of us, thanks! Summer of 2017. Murky golden, off-white head. Lightly to moderately hoppy, fruity and grassy hops. Balanced. Medium to full body, moderate carbonation, light finish. This was probably not fresh at the time, so don't count the rating.

750ml bottle in the garden, late autumn heatwave, 15th October 17. Pours a copper colour with a white fluffy head. Aroma is pine, citrus, slight caramel. Taste is biter sweet, pine, floral, really pleasant, perfume, bitter. Oily pine, bitter finish. One of the best Norwegian IPAs for sure.
