Pay no attention to the cutesy potholder in the background, 'cuz Indica India Pale Ale from Lost Coast Brewery is one heavy hitter with 6.5% alcohol, bitter Columbus hops, and a burnt orange color that matches its flavor.
The Washdown:
- sweet grapefruit aroma, fluffy head, burnt orange color, bitter Indica India Pale Ale (CA) 6.5% ABV
Don't let the honey sweet grapefruit nose fool you. Once this beer hits your lips a rush of bitter Columbus hops mixed with Willamette & Centennial hop Flowers hit your palate like a ton of bricks. This beer's not for pansies. While the carbonation may add some relief, the bold Bitter, almost Roasted Coffee flavor continues from taste to finish.
As my dad always says, "It'll put hair on your chest, and make your toes open 'n shut," which is probably what the four-armed, leg-twisting elephant on the beer's label is trying to accomplish whilst juggling his frothy mugs.
Enjoy with caution.
