On tap at La Planta, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma has some tart guava-like fruit and soft wheat. Flavour almost seems salty, with tart lemon-like fruit, wheat, and a saline-like finish. Clean enough but rather dull. It’s alright.

On tap at La Planta, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma is very dull on the passionfruit—flat hops, dull malt, faint crappy fruit. Flavour is very dull, with faded, old-tasting fruit, without any real hop expression nor malt base. Pretty weak and dull.

On tap at La Planta, pours a clear dark copper with a small beige head. Aroma has soft toasted malt and very light caramel. Flavour has some caramel, toasted malt, and light sugars. Clumsy balance, not much malt base. It’s alright.

On tap at La Planta, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma has some English malt, low-level diacetyl, and a touch of resinous hops. Flavour is overcarbonated, which throws this off a bit, with English bready malt, bittering resinous hops, some pine, and toasted caramel. Finishes spritzy due to the carb. Odd one. Not bad.

On tap at La Planta, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma has some melony hops, crisp biscuity malt, and a touch of old pine. Flavour has a nice piney hop character and crisp biscuity malt. Dry, lightly oily, well-balanced. Not too bitter or aggressive but well-made.

Can in Costa Rica.
Pours clear golden with a medium sized white head, light lacing. Grapefruit, citrus, pine resin.
Tasty. A very good WCIPA in Costa Rica, 1, if not, the best WCIPA's I've had in CR.
