It Could Be Yours

Tap to rate

A West Coast Red IPA with a ruby-red colour, brewed with Red X malt and rye malt next to the barley malt, then double dry-hopped with Simcoe, Lemondrop and Cascade. Pine, citrus and a dank hop edge lead the way, resinous and bitter, with just enough malt backbone to hold it together. 6.0 % ABV.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for It Could Be Yours

◎ Appearance

Ruby-red hue with excellent clarity and bright translucence. A dense, off-white head forms with good initial retention and leaves fine Schaumkleiden down the glass as it settles. Vibrant carbonation is visible throughout, lending visual liveliness to the pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with resinous pine and a pronounced dank character from the double dry-hopping regimen. Citrus notes—particularly from Lemondrop—provide a bright counterpoint, while subtle rye and Red X malt contribute warmth and a light spice undertone. The hop profile sits forward, inviting but not aggressive.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and hop-forward, with pine and resinous bitterness anchoring the mid-palate. Citrus and dank notes develop alongside a solid malt backbone of barley, Red X, and rye that prevents the beer from becoming one-dimensional. Bitterness builds steadily, finishing assertive but balanced, with lingering resin and herbaceous character.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and lingering, with a persistent herbal and resinous bitterness that fades gradually over several minutes. The malt sweetness retreats early, leaving the hop character and drying tannins to define the aftertaste.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
