Can to becher glass.
Appearance: bright yellow color with a good transparency about it and finger and a half to two fingers of white foamy head. Once dissipated, there was some light messy clingy lace
Aroma: huge citrusy, danky pine, sweet grassy to subtle grapefruity bitter rind, some melon then a highly clean bready malt base
Flavor: fully bittersweet hop blend and bringing the malts for a stellar balance, no aftertaste
Texture: medium bodied, some kind of sessionability about this, some kind of oily to smoothness rolling over my tongue, finishes oily crisp (is that a thing yet?) And not as "dry" as the brewer says so, just my two cents 🙄
Overall, I say a wonderful West coast styled IPA I would love to have again.
*Also glad I discovered we can put emojis in ratings however only will proceed now with emojis only in new beer reviews.
