A mild nose of caramel, malt and a touch of fruity hops. A near black body topped by a dense light tan head. This is more a cross between a stout and a nut brown ale than a black IPA. Coffee, a touch of chocolate, nuts and malt. A very soft undercurrent of citrus hops, but you have to look for it. The body is a touch thin, but not what I would call a bad beer.

Tap at the beer bistro. Black pour, medium beige head. Nice toasty, good dose of piney hops. Solid carb, mouthfeel is full. Finish is highly bitter, roast dominates the finish, the hops fade. Flavour is all roasted malts, and light coffee notes,no hops.

Pitch black. Smells like charred oak, chinook and banana. Light roast. More citrus than wood. Mmm. Pretty refreshing. Thin and very palpable. It is not overwhelming in any sense. Good creamy finish

This ipa poured a deep black colour with a big, creamy brown head. Nice lacing. Scents include cocoa, caramel, toast and coffee. First swig was nice and burnt as hell. Almost a stout. Flavours of coffee, caramel and dark roasted bread. Finish is burnt as hell with coffee flavour lingering forever.

Can at Beer Bistro, Toronto, 12th July 17, pours black, aroma is dark chocolate, coffee, ash. Taste is dark chocolate, coffee, cocoa some hop bitterness, but not enough hops, making it more of a light stout.

Can split at CBC Islo, thanks to Fiona, 07/07/16. Light black with a decent tan cap. Nose is light charr, brown bread, spice, dark fruit notes, light hop. Taste comprises light roasted malts, cocoa powder, earthy hops, toffee, charr. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Entry level kind of affair for the style.

Can: Poured a black color stout with a nice brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of dry roasted malt with some light piney hops notes. Taste is also a mix of piney hops notes with loads of dry bitter roasted malt notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Not bad but hops profile could have been amped up.

Can shared at Craft Beer Co Islington - London. Many thanks to Fiona, I believe! Pours brown with a creamy, tan head. The nose holds milk chocolate, toasted malts, grains, roast. Light sweet flavour with burnt cocoa, some wood, earth. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation .Finishes with notes of burnt pine, scorched earth, cocoa. Not bad.

Big Bottleshare at Craft Islington. Not sure who brought this, so thanks! Can. Almost opaque dark brown beer, thin pale tan head. Palate is airy and fairly dry. Reasonable carbonation. Strong dark chocolate malts, some roast malt bitterness. Mild dark fruits. Floral bitterness. Light semi dry finish. Bitter linger. Could be smoother on the hop side but nice enough.
