Pours a fairly clear light orange with fine head.

Smell is juicy with notes of peach, mango, vanilla and a floral hint.

Taste is fruity anf juicy with notes of citrus, mango and peach and the floral hint again. Solid bitterness with a bit of sweetness. Clean and bright.

Mouthfeel is medium, soft and sticky with good carbonation.

Overall, another clean and well crafted IPA from the masters.

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

While this makes for a very enjoyable IPA, it's not quite bitter and resinous enough for a proper West Coast IPA in my opinion, while there are also hints of haze and juice to this, with the cloudy look and fruity notes almost making this seem like more of one of those quite bitter and resinous New England IPAs that Cloudwater does so well rather than a proper West Coast IPA. The somewhat light malt backbone plays into this as well, again being more reminiscent of a NEIPA than a WCIPA, while it's a also just a tad too floral and grassy for my personal taste. It's still a very nice brew, but not quite what I expected here.
