Twin Fin Style
Basqueland Brewing Project

Pours a cloudy, amber coloration with a medium, fluffy head. Smells of biscuity, slightly caramelly malt and citrus/tropical hops, with notes of tangerine and pineapple, as well as some herbal accents. Taste is a good balance of biscuity, slightly caramelly malt and fruity, floral, herbal, slightly grassy and resinous hops, with citrus and tropical notes of grapefruit, tangerine and pineapple, with just a hint of pine. Finishes with a medium bitterness and some tangerine, pineapple and floral, herbal accents lingerinmg in the aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.

While the flavor profile is a little odd here for my personal taste, a bit too floral and grassy, probably due to the Amarillo and Comet hops, this does make for nice West Coast IPA overall, being quite bitter, herbal and somewhat resinous, with some great citrus and lighter tropical notes as well. While I think that that combination of floral and grassy hops almost makes this feel a little soapy, this is made up for by the the bitter, herbal and resinous qualities of the beer, while it also has a good balance of sweet'ish, slightly caramelly malt and bitter hops to it in general. Overall, this makes for a slightly unusual, but enjoyable West Coast IPA that is well-balanced and rather enjoyable despite a slightly odd feel to the flavor profile here.
