Idiosynkrasie Profile

440ml can. Cloudy, pale yellow-ish, golden colour with average, frothy, osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Citrusy fruity, slightly piney and resinous, minimally grassy, hoppy aroma, pale malty background, hints of grapefruit, lemon, a touch of hemp. Taste is mildly bitter, piney, resinous and citrusy fruity, minimally grassy hoppy, minimally spicy, pale malty basis, hints of grapefruit, lemon, a touch of salty cracker, hemp.
Watery texture, rather indifferent palate, medium, prickly carbonation.
More a West Coast take on a NEIPA than a real West Coast IPA, adequate hop flavours but no caramel malt detectable, way too mild hop bitterness - decent brew in itself, definitely not a blueprint for a real West Coast IPA.
