Best Day Brewing West Coast IPA

“A light grainy malt and floral-hop note greet the nose. Light malt body beneath a candied-orange and peach profile. Light bready character in the flavor balances moderate tangerine notes. Very smooth and clean with a medium hop bittering that lingers with tangerine into the finish.”

“Watermelon and rind in the aroma with drops of lime and agave. Some funky fermentation character. A sweet full body smacks the palate with watermelon pulp. Salty toward the back. Aftertaste of sweet fruit punch.”

__Aroma:__ “Rich, well-rounded nose with a ton of citrus character (blood orange, grapefruit pith, tangerine) and a malt sweetness to support. Very slight pine aroma as it warms.” __Flavor:__ “Complex citrus hops character (blood orange, grapefruit pith) with a little nice pineapple, and substantial bitterness, but enough bright malt character that provides a good balance to the hops with some sweetness and residual sugars. Mouthfeel is great with a dry finish. Hops bitterness lingers but is not unpleasant and to be expected from this style.” __Overall:__ “Pretty classic classy IIPA with lots of fun hops, balanced bitterness, and plenty boozy for the name. One could enjoy too much of this!”
