Burn Out CDA

Cascadian Dark Ale

Others around the country call it a Black IPA while those of us in the Great Pacific Northwest seem to prefer the term CDA. We're not picky though - either term works for this delicious throw-back style! Our version is very dark brown to black in color with a medium body, creamy mouthfeel, and complex malt character provided by Vienna & Munich malts as well as Flaked Oats. The bitterness is substantial but smooth and the midnight wheat malt adds just a slight hint of roast flavor. This is a hoppy beer though and the stars of the show are the big pine and resin aromas and flavors courtesy of Centennial and Comet hops. CDA or Black IPA? Who knows - it's delicious either way!
