Not bad, not great. Definitely on the bitter, maltier side. The words pine and citrus are used quite a bit in the other reviews, have to say they’re pretty accurate descriptors.

Globe; bottled in Dec. 2016.
Not a bad IPA, but nothing that stands out about it.

The Eastside west coast IPA from Excel is decent. It poured a nice copper clear with fizzy thick white head that is leaving a spotty lace. The scent is gentle with pine and citrus. The taste is surprisingly easy to drink and well balanced. There is definite sweet malt to counter the bitter hops leaving enough pine and citrus to make it good. The mouthfeel is medium in body with good carbonation. Overall it is good.

12/23....pours hazy dirty gold, good thick 1/4 inch head of white packed foam. Nose of straw, hay, grains, but very light. Taste is an open citrus bitter, builds to a biscuit bread pine malt and then a fast finish. Some bitter at the end. Floral and lemony. Nice.
