Beast Coast
Gun Hill Brewing Company

Slightly hazy, golden color. Medium sized, white head. Malt, tropical fruits, pine, and dank hops in aroma.Moderate malty sweetness and strong, longlasting, hoppy bitterness. Complete and even

 

Can poured into snifter.

Bit cloudy orange, off-white bubbly foam. Settles into sticky lacing and thin collar.

Sweet malts and some citrus and pine in the aroma.

Flavor is ripe and over-ripe tropical fruits over a caramel malt sweetness.

Moderate carbonation and bit over medium body, coats the tongue and a bit syrupy.

Flavor gets more fruity as it warms.

Tall can, I cant find any canning date info

Pours out a pretty typical looking IPA, slight haze, khaki mini cap

Robust nose with limes, ginger, mango, onions and some resiny light smoke

Solid DIPA, loaded with old school, west coast mostly character, more fruit, more dank and resiny fresh tasting hops. Large and luscious. flexing its near 10% but in a nimble and effortless fashion. More quality brew from the Bronx's Gun Hill....well worth a try

 

 

Cloudy, darker gold. A Modest head which settles to rim bubbles. Some decent spots on the glass.

Nice caramel malt aroma. Slightly sweet. Light floral hop nose.

The flavor is far more bitter than the smell suggests. Semisweet and a bit oily from the high alcohol presence, The hop comes in quickly and completely dominates the taste, culminating in the swallow and leaving a long bitter aftertaste. Thick body with a muted level of carbonation.

 

Let's give this brewery another shot, non-mosaic hopefully. No canning date

pours a nice fluffy creamy head that hits 1/2 finger and fades semi quickly, semi hazy golden honey color

Nose explodes out of the gate, a little dankness, musty tropical notes, plenty of citrus and some stone fruit, papaya mango notes, a little tangerine and guava apricot thing, but also a touch of grassy herbal thing in the background almost pine onion but hard to tell

Taste brings more dank hops out front, musty as hell with lots of papaya, orange zest, a little peachy apricot stone fruit preserve, candied orange marmalade, sweet malts, a hint of warming booze, generic musty tropical fruit, a little mango sherbert, touch of pine sap almost oniony thing in the background, perhaps there is a bit of mosaic. Finishes drier with a bit more booze and some alcohol esters, almost minty spicy hop lingering, sweet malt as well, and orange marmalade.

Mouth is med to a bit heavier bod, decent carb, a little warming booze

Overall not bad, some flashes of my nasty hop flavors onion and pine sap, perhaps a little mosaic in there, or one of the other hops that was treated with the bad bug treatment thing, but some decent stuff as well.
