Basqueland Brewing Skeleton Bay

Basqueland’s Skeleton Bay is a vibrant American IPA that strikes a balance between coastal brightness and forest-like depth. A trio of Loral, Cashmere, and Idaho 7 hops defines the profile, leading with punchy grapefruit peel and sharp lime pith. The aromatic experience is deepened by a persistent layer of pine resin and a subtle herbal undertone, evoking a rugged landscape. On the palate, the hop-forward bitterness is supported by a clean, grainy malt backbone, finishing dry and crisp. This moderately strong ale showcases a modern hop profile while maintaining the classic, assertive bitterness and resinous clarity expected of the style.
