Side Launch 5th Coast Hazy IPA / Side Launch Fifth Coast Hazy IPA

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 8 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

Hazy golden-orange colour with a big frothy-creamy, off-white, warm cap, very long retention and full thick foamy lacing. Citrus aromas with grapefruit zest, some orange juice, mild grassy hops with a touch of alcohol-bitterness, oats. Fruity taste on the sweet, tropical fruit side - like mango, tangerine with again, some citrus zest to cut this sweet touch. A decent dryness occurs in the end. The tropical fruits do come out in the nose, and tangerines. A well-balanced (zest to juice ratio), easy-drinking juicy, hazy IPA.

Then beer pours a hazed gold colour with a generous white bubbly head that lasts a few minutes and provides decent lacing. The aroma is grainy malt, tropical fruit notes, and yeast. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is biscuit malt, light yeast, and tropical citrus. Not a bad beer, but not a favourite.
