Bigger On The Inside is a double IPA featuring Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe. This beer is deliciously dank and fruity. At 8.7% there’s no denying that it is a mouthful of hops but it’s one that is so easy and satisfying to drink. Unlike it’s predecessor, this batch was double dry hopped and it’s just dripping with fresh hop aroma and flavor.

Clear, medium amber body; nice, lively carbonation; one-finger thick head, semi-creamy. Dank, earthy aroma. Big malt backbone; dank and resinous hop flavor; earthy spiciness. Heavy body with a mild prickliness on the tongue; a bit sticky.

An enjoyable double IPA that leans towards an old school malt-forward presentation with a bit of old school west coast hop presence.

Poured from a can - clear golden straw color with white head leaving some frosty lacing. Nose is mild citrus and dank hops. Taste follows more or less. Finishes with a nice hop bit and medium carbonation. Classic WC DIPA.

From can into a pint glass. Great medium amber color, decent but not huge head. Hop nose, hop taste, hop feel...slight burn from the high AC, but really not a whole lot different from other DIPAs. Tasty and totally drinkable, but not unique.

not an especially aroma-filled beer, but a nice west coast hop flavor!

Sweet tropical hoppy nose! Taste follows the nose with notes of faint pineapple and dankness. This has good depth for a double and the right amount of bitterness at the end. This is a well balanced west coast double that I am impressed with.
