Westside IPA
Claim 52 Brewing

 

 

 

Lightly hazed pale gold with two fingers of white foamy head. Splotches of lace form as the head falls.
Smell citrus orange rind some bread crust malt.
Taste big citrus zest bready malt.
Mouthfeel is light to medium with good carbonation. Finish is dry and moderately bitter.
Overall a tasty West Coast IPA.
Canned on: 3/29/19.

 

16 ounce can poured into a IPA glass.

Look- Very pale yellow, slightly hazy, less than average head retention.
Smell- Citrus, grapefruit.
Taste- Citrus, unbalanced: flavorful up front, but watery and weak on the backend.
Feel- Very thin body, lower than average carbonation, astringent feel on finish.
Overall- Not very complex beer, some citrusy favor upfront, but that was about it.

Great choice coming out of Claim 52 brewing. There is quite the unfiltered IPA trend going on here in Portland, OR. This is definitely a must have for beer drinkers. Be sure to give it a try.

 

16oz single can bought from Lifesource in Salem OR $2.29 Golden clear ale with a small white head..fades to a ring with lace soon. Nice hoppy aromas..of spruce, orange candy slices and a slight light dankness. Taste .. sweet fruit..then bitter orange then a dry finish Bitter dry finish. Loved the mouth feel on this very well carbonated and "vigorous". Not flabby of cloying even for an instance! Nice old style IPA
