Skinny Jeans IPA
A hop-forward West Coast IPA with strong tropical and floral notes followed by citrusy aromatics. Very highly attenuated and light on malt, it leans on hops that were still obscure code names, HBC 369 and YCR 14, before they became Mosaic and Simcoe, known for tropical, blueberry and rose-blossom aromas alongside dank, piney, resinous ones. 56 IBU.
