Review: Dogzilla Black IPA-Laughing Dog Brewing

A Big Bold Hoppy IPA that finishes with a dark twist.
True to its IPA roots Dogzilla has a massive hop presence that is Piney and Citrusy. A malty backbone, along with the dark malt gives it a bit of a roasty finish. Brewed with Simcoe and Cascade Hops, Pale Malt, Munich, and Black Barley.
6.9% abv and 69IBU's
Available In 22oz bottles, and draft 15.5, 5.2 kegs

Analysis:
     I picked this one up based on the fact it is brewed in Idaho. How does that not make this beer interesting... It's a big dark IPA with a bitter citrusy bite. It's a rugged tasting IPA especially after having Hop Stoopid recently which is extremely smooth. Laughing Dog says to hell with smooth this beer rips your face off! Overall it's a good beer with some interesting characteristics.
