Poured from a 473ml Can. Canned on Feb/06/2025.
An overall ok mild West Coast IPA.
Easy to drink but really for me is a bitter pale ale.
A weak try at a WCIPA really, i paid $9 for a can In British Columbia.
So many better ones out here in B.C.

Pretty good. Not as bitter or hoppy as I would of expected from a West Coast IPA, but still an IPA all the same. Citrous smell and taste. Pours a light copper color that keeps maybe 1 finger of foam for a couple minutes at most. Taste is a little bitter, but not as much as some other West Coast IPA beers. West Coast is supposed to be bitter and hoppy. A bit more than New England East Coast IPA.

Anyways, it's pretty easy to drink for what it is. I do like it. I only bought 1 of these from their website and before I knew it, I drank it all. I don't have anymore of these but I do have other IPA beers in the fridge, so that's what I'm going to have now.

Overall very decent IPA beer from Bellwoods. These guys really don't miss. Everything but their Export Stout is another buy from me. I'm going to forget about that one. I could buy bootlegger again, but they have other IPA's on their website which are better than this one so I'll just buy those instead. If they are sold out then Boot Legger is a good choice.
If you want a lighter less bitter West Coast IPA then you may really like this beer.
Cheers!
