Malt forward. Very dark brown with a gold highlight and a thick beige head. Roasty coffee aroma with light hop resin. Lightly carbonated, bitter, coffee.

Love a Black IPA, this does not disappoint. Slightly sweet, hoppy, fruity, citrussy chocolatey and coffee all in one.

Not going to rate as past BBE. Was good Black IPA but was bit too heavy on the bitterness that it took over from the roasty notes too much and too quickly.

Big roasty,hoppy and slightly bitter black IPA. It’s bold, full flavoured and well balanced.

This has the hallmarks of a great beer, but the hops aren't singing - it's close to the BBE and I think its probably suffered from lack of cold storage. Damnit

Roasty and rich. Can taste the booziness. Not normally one for a black IPA but this is nice
