Fifty West Coast To Coast IPA Beer Review

Coast to Coast IPA from Fifty West Brewing Company located in Cincinnati is an American IPA that at 6.8% ABV and 60 IBU named after what has been called the Loneliest Road in America…Route 50 that goes coast to coast. As you can probably guess, the brewery sits on this highway in a location that once was a speakeasy here in the city. However, as to the beer, it was a nice hoppy, citrusy, fruity, tropical and slightly resinous IPA. Overall, I also found it to be a smooth IPA and for me, it is 3.75 out of 5 on this one. Check out the video if you would like to hear and see more on this one.
