Wexi wrote amazing review. You should read it. After reading it you want to buy this beer. Wexi is right this is a very good beer. Fresh, crisp, clean, balanced, dry and easy drinking west coast IPA. Lots of taste for a non-alcoholic beer. Citrus, grapefruit and pine.

The previous beer was so mouthwatering that I want another Mash Gang beer! And I have more! Lucky me! 🤗 This West Coast Pale Ale shows a cloudy, deep copper hue. The mere appearance is so old-school. Carbonation behaves decently but releases a soapy, off-white head that well exceeds one finger, almost reaches two, until it collapses down to a thin haze. The nose receives grapefruity, piney and slightly resinous aromas. Further down the road, a marginal vegetal hint pops up occasionally. It's truly remote and doesn't ruin the experience. Luckily. The tastebuds don't quite know what to expect since the brewery brags that the beer contains eleven hops. Eleven! The can lists ten. Wtf? Ten or eleven, whatever, but are you sure that all of them are needed? Let's see. [.....Sipping.....] I'm picking overripe grapefruit, pine needles and a touch of resin. A pinch of dry grass, too. I'm glad that I don't recognize anything vegetal here. Quite classical, overall. The body is light. Interesting. Just when I thought that a body of a non-alcoholic beer can't obviously be anything else but thin, I enjoy a non-alcoholic beer with a bigger than thin body. Not robust but light. It's not bad at all for 0.5 %. The end offers the same flavors as upfront. It even intensifies from the actual taste. And lasts long on the tongue. The aftertaste mods its Minecraft and becomes a hero. The mouthfeel is crisp, a tad piney, resinous, dry and drying. It's a very classical West Coast Pale, just the way it's supposed to be. Extra +0.2 stars for a thicker body than just thin. And no, not are all the hops needed. Bru-1, Talus and Strata, at least, are redundant.
