Windjammer India Pale Ale by Green Beacon is an American IPA with 6% ABV, known for its bold aromatic profile and carefully balanced bitterness. Visually, it pours a clear pale gold to amber hue with a persistent white head.
The aroma bursts with citrus and tropical fruit notes - orange, mango, and lychee - layered over a resinous pine backbone. On the palate, these flavors continue with added depth from a subtle caramel malt base that enhances body and drinkability.
Despite its approximate 60 IBU, the bitterness remains clean and controlled, finishing dry and refreshing. Rooted in the West Coast IPA tradition but tailored for modern tastes, Windjammer offers a hop-forward experience without overwhelming intensity - ideal for those who appreciate flavorful yet approachable IPA styles.
