Today we're sharing a West Coast IPA from @Leon103

Appearance wise it is a dark but vibrant golden orange colour with some haze. The carbonation looks perfect on it, with a head that stuck around for quite a while. Once the head left, a quick swirl brought it back again.

On the nose we get orange which faded to a touch of caramel.

The biggest flavour I get is pithy grapefruit with decent lingering bitterness, but it's not harsh. The malt balances the bitterness nicely.

Mouthfeel is medium, but I think the creamy head gives the illusion of a little extra body.

More my husband's type of beer than mine, but a good representation of a West Coast IPA. The sending of two bottles so we could share was much appreciated. Many thanks for sending Leon. 🙂

View attachment 85278This was last night’s drink. Came up as a Lidl special this week. I enjoyed it as a session pale, interested to know what the hops are if anyone else tries it. Described as citrus but to me quite dank.
It's a cracker, I'm also interested in the hops that are used in it as well, as I'd love to have a go at my own version.
