A blend of North American pale, light Munich, light crystal, and carapils malts provide a light malty backbone to balance healthy kettle and dry-hops additions of Cascade, Centennial, and Columbus. Hoppy yet balanced, our latest Project Hoppiness offering is our nod to the beers we love from the other coast. “Winner of the Brooklyn Mystery IPA Challenge.”

12oz can from Half Time. Pale golden pour, light cloudiness, thin foamy head. Aroma is floral, herbal, savory, citrus. Taste is orange, hand soap, sage, a real mixed bag.

A very average IPA. Good, easy to drink, but unremarkable (in a good way).

Pours cloudy orange gold color with a 1-2 finger thick off white head that faded slowly and left really nice lacing. Smells like orange peel, tangerine, lemon zest, biscuit, mild peppery spices and dry citrus hops. Tastes like it smells with the additions of grapefruit, tea leaf, dry chalky yeast, faint pineapple and earthy tones. A nice session beer.

No date on box or can. Shame...

Clear gold. Rocky, pillowy white head. Great retention and sheets of lacing.

Aroma of honey, grapefruit, pineapple, lemon, pine. Pithy and tart. Juicy citrus.

Tastes of big yellow grapefruit and pineapple. Fresh pine needles, honey, pink grapefruit flesh, cracker malt. A bit woody. Mild lingering bitterness, grapefruit peel and pine. Not especially bitter. Crisp and dry.

Medium feel, well carbonated, oily, lightly resinous.

A great IPA! But Greenport Harbor, please date your f***ing beers!!!!

Tastes genuinely like a west coast ipa but brewed on the east coast. Has full west coast bitterness. Not that distinctive or complex though- a fairly standard/competent version of a west coast ipa.

Served to tap at the Greenport Harbor Brewing Company in Greenport, NY.
A: Pours a crystal clear, golden color with a one finger, off-white, foamy head, rim retention, and camouflage style lacing.
S: Aromas of citrus (tangerine and lime) and a tiny bit of cardamom.
T: Semidry to dry. Flavors similar to the nose, but lime predominates. Balanced bitterness.
M: Medium bodied and moderate carbonation.
O: Really a very drinkable and delicious American IPA. Not sure it really meets the criteria for "West Coast," but enjoyable nonetheless.
