"Both Coast IPA." 5.7% ABV.
Hop profile is fine. A bit fruity, a bit floral, extremely generic.

Very quick fading 1F off white head with no lace. Color is a dull orange amber with about 70% transparency.
On the nose a nice malt note and hints of orange and grapefruit hops along with a bit of oniony sulfur.
On the palate a subdued grapefruit and orange vibe on a light malt background. Slight bitterness at the end. Rather dull tasting with a tea like tannin causing some tongue to roof of mouth dryness.
Feels a bit water at first but it is medium bodied. Carbonation is light medium. It is slick on the tongue with dry tannins on the finish.
Overall a beer that really is between both coasts and then perhaps turned down even a bit more. No east coast juicy tang, no west coast bitters and that may be the problem. It does not offend yet needs more to be exciting. a rather dull beer that does not excite and not a repeat buy for me.

Nice fruity aroma that is not too sweet and holds an earthy quality at the same time. Semi-cloudy golden am er with large off-white head. Drinks smoothly with full hop flavor of fruit and a little grass. Has touches of sweetness but avoids going to sweet fruit flavor. Soft bittering from from to back that does not grow in intensity very much. A nice drinking ale. Complex enough to offer thoughts, but not too intense. Pleasing. A couple of these would be nice.
Another from #2. Many thanks.

A west/east IPA that is smooth, fruity, balanced, and delicate. Good enough for me to actually write a review!

12 oz can. Pours hazy orange gold with a small creamy white head that quickly goes to a thin film that leaves a little lacing.
The aroma is sweet tropical fruit and soft malts.
The flavor is sweet tropical fruit with some nutty biscuit malts and a green resiny hop finish. The mouthfeel is medium bodied and a bit watery.
Overall, I don't really care for the malt / hop combo.
