Deep gold with more haze than just chill haze, nice white head, excellent retention, rings of lace
Citrus and melon hop aroma, a little bit of caramel malt underneath
Melon, citrus, and mango hop flavor, light, toasty, soft and sweet malt, needs more bitterness to be "West Coast"
Medium bodied, soft, needs more carbonation
I don't like this trend of folks brewing a NEIPA with different yeast or water treatments and calling it "West Coast". I see "West Coast" and I'm thinking something like Celebration or Stone IPA, not a Treehouse beer with Chico or more sulfates.

Pours a very nice amber golden color with a very generous head and lacing
Aroma has generous pine and hop hints
The taste follows the nose with a pleasant very well balanced pine and hop flavor
A medium bodied very well carbonated beer
A great West Coast India Pale Ale
