pFriem West Coast IPA

◎ Aussehen

Pale gold in color with excellent clarity and a fluffy white head that clings to the glass in fine lacing. Carbonation is brisk and well-integrated, lending visual liveliness to the pour.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright stone fruit—ripe strawberry and peach—followed by citrus notes of tangerine juice and grapefruit zest. A distinctive resinous, cannabis-like quality mingles with passion fruit and papaya, creating a complex, layered bouquet characteristic of modern West Coast hop selection.

◐ Geschmack

Entry brings generous ripe strawberry and peach notes, with a subtle tea-like quality. Mid-palate develops gentle pine and red hard candy sweetness, while the hop bitterness—restrained at 45 IBU—provides structure without aggressive bite. The finish carries a light resinous quality alongside subtle malt sweetness.

◑ Abgang

Medium-length finish with lingering resin and gentle sweetness. The aftertaste remains clean and balanced, fading smoothly without astringency.
