Hopzilla is a monster of an IPA that will make you pucker up! Loaded with high-alpha U.S. grown hops, this brawny dry hopped ale will terrorize your taste buds, yet has enough malt backbone to balance a fierce bitterness.

16 oz can from Joe Canal's, 9/27/19. Unclear darker orange color. Big, sticky grapefruit, with some caramel, pine, and a little earth. Kind of a classic, early 2010s West Coast IPA in all the right ways.

16 ounce can. Amber orange color. Dense creamy beige head. Resiny pine nose. Sweet toasted malt flavor upfront. Intense hop flavor. Noticeable alcohol. Robust and flavorful. Dank citrus and pine dominate the palate. A hop bomb!

Pours clear gold into a shaker. Bright white head with excellent retention recedes leaving spider lacing. Sweet hot caramel aromas. Dusty sour earth and hot caramel upfront turning to bitter resin and pith in the lasting hot finish.

Can from mon frere: pours clear orange with a white head. Aroma is explosive hops, with loads of pine, resin, grapefruit. Taste is fairly bitter. Sweet, but not too much. Lingering bitter aftertaste. Classic double IPA.

Pours an only slightly hazy, golden yellow, with a mid-sized cap of lasting, foamy, white head. Aroma is quite dank, with grass and citrus. Flavor is grassy, bready, with some citrus notes. Fairly bitter pine/spruce hop finish. Good stuff. Again, more of a West Coast style DIPA.

16 oz. can thanks to Heather_B on the share. Aroma is apricot, citrus, and a malt character. The flavor is similar to the aroma. Malt base is on the heavy side. Bittersweet in pine. Body is medium. Pretty good but not my favorite from S. Lawson.

Bottle thanks to Russell. Pours a cloudy orange with medium off white head that lasts. The aroma is strong pine, dank, tropical fruit. Medium mouth, pineapple, dank, citrus, nice bitterness, very nice.

Pleasant surprise additions to Blind Tiger VSK night. pours hazy yellow orange with nice bug nose of hoppy goodness. Tastes of grapefruits, mangoes, tree bark, pine sol, dank hops, caramel, and earthy. Pretty heavy bodied DIPA and its bitter and not overly sweet. with alcohol warming on finish.
