Pours a crystal copper with a sudsy off white head that provides ropes of lacing. Looks great in the glass. The nose has a nice citrus aroma and LOTS of caramalt.
The taste is led by a bit of citrus (oranges) and there’s a bit of pine, but this is very malt dominant. A medium mouthfeel that’s drying makes for a drinkable WCIPA.

Grunt fill from Albertsons. Copper colored pour, fluffy head fades to small ring. Light aroma of caramel, toffee. More malts in the taste, stinging bitterness follows. Gentle sweetness. More on the malty side of the spectrum

This feels tastes and smells like an ale to me, a dark ale.
I bought it because I wanted an IPA. To me, it tasted like a slightly hoppy, flat, sweet ale. Not what I was expecting from the label and not what I wanted.

This beer was surprisingly good! I didn’t expect it to be this outstanding and it did live up to it’s namesake, the Lost Coast up in NorCal where it was brewed!
First it poured with an amazingly deep, dark golden amber and boom! came the aroma with resinous, piney, earthy hops! Very dense and intensive, sirupy hops - and believe it or not, the taste could follow it just as well! A great surprise when the taste is the same as the aroma and this beer could make that happen. It had a flawless taste from the beginning to the end, not missing anything and bringing you the joy as if you were drinking liquid gold, a really, really well made beer imho. Would love to drink more from this brewery! Well done!

Copper with a slight haze, moderate carbonation and a finger of yellowish head.
Smells of toffee, caramel, red pepper, and old style ipa dankness.
Tastes of oranges, orange zest, caramel and toffee. It finishes with a long dull bitterness.
Medium, slightly resinous body with little carbonation.
I got this in Redding where I am drinking it, April 21st, 2019.
