West Coast IPA

Gluten free, West Coast IPA with Nelson Sauvin, El Dorado and a touch of Amarillo in the whirlpool. The final result has a marmalade-esque quality, notes of bitter orange and soft florals.

Well, at least it’s West Coast: IBUs, hop character, and a non-zero hop presence are all in place and on style (though I wouldn’t bet it’s Crystal and not Munich.)
It’s also thin, underhopped, and lacking in character. But, at this ABV + in 330ml cans, that may be what they’re after.
Meh, by design.

Another proof point that Whiplash is not a beer geek’s brewery anymore.
