16 oz can canned 11/14/25 into a Willie B.
L: Pours crystal clear medium amber color with a 1" domed slightly off white head, steady carbo, good head retention, medium-heavy full circumference lacing with perforated sheeting.
S: Bread dough, lemon, distant pine, buttery toffee.
T: Bread crust, lemon bread, bread dough, bright pine resin, a distant grape note, very balanced bittersweet, caramelized malts, a light orchard note, a hint of hard candy, overripe lemon, grapefruit zest and a long zesty linger.
F: Lightly brisk then fairly soft and mildly juicy medium bodied mouthfeel with a medium length drying finish.
O: I love this beer! There's an inviting magnetic nature to its bittersweet balance, high-toned bread notes, and crushability. It has lines in its face from early 1990s craft IPAs. I will seek this beer out again. It is outstanding in its style.

Lightly hazed. Not completely clear. They just couldn't do it. Tried, though. Give 'em credit for that. Bright golden hue, short white head.
In the nose: Big-time citrus and pine. Lemon/lime, orange, grapefruit. Dank.
In the mouth: Great blast of bitterness at the top, nice and juicy, turning dry in a quickness. Crisp, clean, bold and hoppy. Medium bodied, easy-drinking, for the hopheads, of course. All others, need not apply.
Big, bold, beautiful happiness. This, I love. Yum a dum dum. It delivers all the goods you want in a West Coast IPA, the kind I love. Keep em coming, Junkyard, don't stop here.

I have become a sucker for anything with “West Coast IPA” on the can. They’re in danger of becoming extinct locally. 750ML crowler split with my wife.
The pour is golden with just a touch of haze & a soft white head that you want to touch. Nose is pure pine bath. I’ve taken many & approve.
Gone Hollywood is a soft, mushy version of the classics. The pine rules, but there are strong backup vocals of lemon & citrus, unwelcome muddiness, with only a slight smear of bitterness on the finish. Should be cleaner but hell is this easy to down.
The word for this beer is inoffensive. A gently, giving WC IPA that wouldn’t turn off those who’ve become attached to suckling NE IPAs from the nip. Pretty good brew.

Looks like lemonade. The aroma is by far the best part of this beer. Excellent hop aroma of pine, citrus, and dank. Nice hop flavor as well but little in the way of malt but it is still sweet. Body is a little shallow as well but it is nicely carbonated.
