Double Hump is their contribution to the West Coast / San Diego Double IPA. A coppery amber in color with a moderately persistent ivory-white head and malty, citrus and herbs aroma, American Two-Row and English Pale and Munich malts provide some light, sugary flavors well-balanced by the pronounced bitterness of the “3C” (Columbus, Chinook and Cascade) hops. All-in-all a very well-structured beer that makes it hard to believe that it’s a double IPA

Best With: 
Sharp Cheddar cheese, broiled steak

Assertive and drinkable. Double IPA is California’s gift to beer lovers. Ours is brewed with four distinctly American hops: Centennial, Citra, Columbus and Simcoe, all beautifully balanced by five malts and generous additions of local orange blossom honey. An intense sensory experience — the fresh aroma of citrus, pine and grapefruit with the bold taste of hops and sweet honey.

Best With: 
Grilled lamb, smoked beef brisket, chicken fried steak. Crème brulee. Sharp blue cheeses, extra sharp cheddar

On the brink of extinction, they were plucked from obscurity and thrown into the spotlight. Facing ignorance and disinterest, someone saw potential...and knew they would be big. We’re not dishing on the latest undeserving Hollywood celebutante counting down their 15 minutes. We’re talking about the big, bold, and beautiful Centennial hops. With huge floral and citrus notes, these high alpha hops are one of the the industry’s few triple threats. They can be used for bittering, aroma, and flavor, which make them perfect for our latest Single Hop Imperial IPA.

This beer is big and hoppy – not for the faint of heart! Be prepared to experience sensory overload as you savor this Imperial IPA.

Best With:
