Welcome back beer fans.
Another West Coast IPA and another collaboration beer, but this promises to be very good, coming from two of the best breweries around. No gimmicks just a classic brew, hopefully done with skill and panache.

- Grain : Barley and wheat
- Aroma : Citrus with a touch of pine
- Appearance : Golden with a slight haze and a white head

An impressive collaboration producing a superior West Coast IPA. As the name suggests this is glorious. The ABV seems about right, it certainly packs a punch. It captures a good level of bitterness and leaves the palate very, very dry.
Objective achieved, it’s a corker and one I will be buying again.
Our overall rating: 3.9/ 5.0
