We've said it once before and we'll say it again... sometimes you fall in love with a hag so much that you have no choice but to name a beer after it. And what's not to love? Strata's like the person that made a big entrance at the party and now everyone wants to hang out with them. And now's your chance to hang out with our new favorite hop. So pour this beauty into your favorite glass and spend some time getting to know all that we love about Strata. Cheers!

Picked up a 4-pack of this and their Jetty barleywine after having a quick flight of other beers at El Segundo Brewing Company. Figured ahead of time at El Segundo would know how to make a Strata-hopped West Coast IPA. Had two cans before reviewing it, giving it a 4.25 both times on Untappd on Jan. 15. For the first one I wrote “Forgot to take a photo but I love Strata and no double that El Segundo could nail a West Coast Strata IPA. Early prediction is a 4.20 for many reasons. Outstanding.” Untappd description was “We've said it once before and we'll say it again... sometimes you fall in love with a hag so much that you have no choice but to name a beer after it. And what's not to love? Strata's like the person that made a big entrance at the party and now everyone wants to hang out with them. And now's your chance to hang out with our new favorite hop.

Poured a medium yellow clear color with three fingers of rocky-to-frothy white head. Could see bubble streams coming up from the bottom of the glass at different points. Excellent foamy lacing. Very good retention. (Sight - 4.25)
Smelled Strata, grapefruit, strawberry, weed, dank resin, pine, wet grass and passion fruit. It got better as it went down. Much better out of the can. (Smell - 4.25)
Tasted almost as good as the nose but not quite. In order got Strata, dank pine, resin, strawberry, red grapefruit, passion fruit, wet grass, weed and earthy malt. (Taste - 4.00)
Medium body. Oily texture. Lively carbonation. Long, earthy, bitter finish. (Feel - 4.25)
Was kind of back and forth on a few categories but I really liked this for a West Coast IPA overall. (Overall - 4.25)
