Short-Lived - There Does Not Exist
MadeWest Brewing Company

Smells like a Hazy, but looks clear, with a yellow-straw color. Big, white head. Fairly bitter, with lots of fruit notes, including stone, guava, papaya, and some pine too. Finish is bitter. Slightly yeasty in taste, but ends with a proper West Coast profile.

Canned on 2/13 /2026, consumed March 13, 2026. Beautiful beer, perfectly clear gold amber topped by two or more fingers of white fluffy head in a tall pilsner glass. A nice West Coast IPA for people that are fans of hazy IPAs because it has good fruit, aroma and flavor mostly citrus, mostly tangerine, rather than really bitter grapefruit. Also, some stone fruit (like peach?). Relatively dry finish. relatively mild carbonation. mild to moderate bitterness. Overall quite nice.

16 oz can.
Really pretty. Brassy amber in hue. Gorgeous and generous head. Fluffy and white and plant of light layered lacing.
Nose has generous amounts of citrus with some layers of a floral peach and mellow bitterness.
Flavor follows the nose pretty well with the citrus taking a humble lead.
Decent carb, proper heft, and a slightly dry bitterness on the end.

Clear amber brew with plenty of foam in the Leute Bokbier glass. Malty and full bodied with a modest sweetness. Brewed with Talus, Mosaic Cryo, and Nelson hops. MadeWest has made a terrific fruity brew with plenty of tanginess and aromatics. Scents of leather, peach, and even roses. Flavors of lime peel, peach, and grapes with a dose of bitterness in the aftertaste.

Interesting that the star hop, Talus, is also featured in the Fremont Head Full of Fresh Hops which I hated just yesterday. Also known as HBC-692 and featured in Doom Juice from GameCraft, which I loved.

This is a really flavorful and drinkable West Coast IPA. Clean and aromatic with no sediment. A bit sharp but not overly acidic. From the 16 oz can purchased at Bine & Vine. Dated 101920, less than two weeks ago.
