Sensory Description:

Pouring a clear golden hue with an off-white head, West Coast IPA opens with aromas of grapefruit, orange peel, and pine resin. On the palate, bright citrus and marmalade lead, followed by earthy pine and grassy undertones. A subtle malt backbone of biscuit and light toast provides balance, but the finish remains clean, crisp, and resinous with lingering hop bitterness.

Brewer’s Background:

Based in Arvada, Colorado, New Image Brewing has built its reputation on producing hop-driven beers with creativity and precision. While the brewery is known for hazy and modern IPAs, this West Coast IPA reflects their dedication to honoring the roots of the style—delivering a beer that emphasizes bitterness, clarity, and balance while remaining deeply satisfying.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve at 45–50°F in a tulip or IPA glass to fully highlight its aromatic hop profile. This beer pairs beautifully with grilled meats, barbecue, sharp cheddar cheese, and spicy fare, where its piney bitterness can cut through richness. Also excellent with seafood tacos or fried foods, where its crisp finish refreshes the palate. Best enjoyed fresh to capture its full hop expression.
