Double West Coast IPA
We chained Alice and got stuck deep in the darkness of the Rabbit Hole. No sadness anywhere, as complexity and simplicity scream at once in every sip. Double after double—that’s the beauty of life in the hole.
It was insanely hard to decide what to brew together with the Bulgarian Metalhead Brewery, since practically every one of their beers blew our minds. In the end, we settled on a sure-thing plan: let’s make a “headbanger” double West Coast IPA. They even sent us the base malt recipe via message, and we boosted it with Vista, Simcoe, and Cascade hops—let it rip. Of course, Alice in Chains’ Down in a Hole blasted the whole time, and our designer got totally into the vibe—check out the label!
Hops: Titan, Vista, Simcoe, Cascade

0.33l can. Golden body with a white head. Aroma of tangerine, resiny hops, some oats and raisins. Taste of orange zest, grapefruit, hop resins, sugar syrup and oats. The hops are there, but I could imagine a bit more bitterness for a DIPA. Anyways I still like it.

Tap at BGB with Gurthnar. Clear amber body, off-white head. Caramel and some stone fruit in the aroma. Oxidized taste, grainy notes, stone fruit, some vegetables, rough low bitterness. A bit messy sadly - maybe it's the time it spent on tap at the bar, but didn't enjoy it.

Thin bod, rather light carbo. Med-high bitter, med-light medicinal edge, nongood. Med-high piney, junipery, medium zesty, citrusy hops character. Rather rough than tasty. Meh.
