Behemoth Brewing's "America's Hops Are Now New Zealand's Hops West Coast IPA" is a bold and captivating IPA that showcases the exceptional quality of New Zealand-grown hops. With its vibrant golden-amber hue and persistent foamy white head, this beer is a visual delight. The aroma is intensely aromatic and resinous, with citrusy notes of grapefruit, tangerine, and lemon, complemented by piney and herbal aromas and a subtle tropical fruit undertone. The taste is a complex blend of citrus, pine, and herbal flavors, with a bold and assertive bitterness that is balanced by a malty backbone and a moderate sweetness, resulting in a clean finish. The mouthfeel is medium-bodied, with a smooth and slightly oily texture and a crisp, refreshing carbonation. The slight astringency from the intense hops adds to the overall experience, making this IPA a must-try for fans of classic American IPAs and those who appreciate the unique hop flavors of New Zealand.
