Mad Brewing Jim West

This bold American IPA captures the quintessential West Coast spirit with a high-intensity hop profile. At 8% ABV, it leans into a robust presence where vibrant notes of resinous pine and bright grapefruit zest dominate the senses. A clean, supporting malt backbone of light caramel and toasted grain provides just enough structure without detracting from the aggressive bitterness. The fermentation profile is remarkably clean, allowing the sharp, citrusy hop character to linger through a dry, crisp finish. It is a potent, hop-forward experience that balances punchy bitterness with a smooth, warming alcohol integration, staying true to the classic dry-finishing California style.
