440ml can. Murky yellow, small white head. Aroma of tropical and citrus fruits. Taste is tropical, orange and mango, peach, passionfruit, a little pine, nice bittersweet balance. Very nice. Another beer from this brewery where the name references the opposite coast to the style. Why do they do this? EDIT: Brewery informed me the name isn't a reference to Laguna Beach in California as I'd wrongly assumed :)

440ml can. Slightly hazy golden, big white head. Aroma of tropical and citrus fruits. Taste is tropical, pineapple, grapefruit, pine, moderately bitter. Despite the name this is definitely west coast leaning. This brewery seems to get their east and west mixed up when naming beers.

440 ml can, online from Hop Vault, Stourbridge. Pours hazed orange with a slim beige cap. Aroma: caramel, toast. Taste: light to moderate sweet & bitter, caramel, vague pine. Medium body with light carbonation. Didn't live up to the WCIPA moniker in my view.
