Kali
Newbarns Brewery

I had this beer on-tap in a tall, narrow pint glass at the brewery in Edinburgh.

Appearance: golden yellow hue with a dash of haze and a huge effervescence — I wonder if the bottom of the glass has lasered nucleation sites? Head is a finger of creamy ivory foam.

Smell: moderately sweet with a very citrusy, earthy hop character. Reminds me of a WCIPA.

Taste: I don’t know if they call this a west coast IPA, but they should. A fair dose of earthy sweet malt character and a tasty grapefruit peel hoppiness, and there is bitterness aplenty here. This is … really solid.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a decent carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: it took a second for this one to grab me, but now I’m super into it. A great execution of a WCIPA.

Canned in a big old tallboy crafty craft can and picked up from the new take out section of Café Beermoth replacing their Tib street
Pours fairly clear golden body with nice white head
Aroma is grapefruit pith and zest
Flavour is sweet resinous vine, citrus and bursting bitterness
