West-Coast style IPA brings big bright citrus together with a firm but welcoming bitterness. Dry, with subtle malt character leaving lots of room for the hops to be expressive.

Hopped with Citra and Simcoe.

4.48/5  rDev +1.8%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: Pours a slightly hazy goldenstraw with a three finger head; strong retention with speckles and strands of lacing

Smell: Bright aromatics with tropical pineapple intermingling with a dominant grapefruit presence

Taste: A hint of pineapple on the front end with the grapefruit enveloping, through the middle; in the finish, there is an interplay between the tropical and the bitter

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: Love the intermingling between the traditional West Coast bitterness and the more delicate tropical elements

Thanks, devoured_by_vermin, for the opportunity

As a west coast native now leaving in CT, I often search the shelves for fresh renditions of west coast IPA. Well, look no further. Honestly a great version of the style. Grapefruit and pine come through in waves with enough citrus fruit to keep a modern vibe. Very impressed by this - I really hope CW keeps this one out more often
