hopIQ found 10 beers with the same resinous and hoppy character as Tower X West Coast IPA. Karl Strauss's grand statement West Coast IPA — the beer that took Silver at World Beer Cup 2024. Piney, resinous C-hop character up front, bright citrus underneath, a firm bready malt spine, and the crisp, bone-dry finish the West Coast style demands. Tower X is what happens when a brewery decides to be great at one thing, then keeps proving it. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
Closest match: Boardwalk — 95%. Same resin notes and hop character, with a dank edge Karl Strauss Brewing Company keeps quiet.
