IPA - Black / Cascadian Dark Regular Out of Production

Score

7.15

ABV: 5.4%

IBU: -

Ticks: 7

This black ale has the hop character of an IPA, but little in the way of roasted malt character that its colour would suggest. Pours black with hints of ruby around the edges, with notes of flowers, citrus, and stone fruit in the nose. Predominant peach and citrus move across the palate, finishing with a smooth, light, chocolate character.

Cask-conditioned at Tank, Gloucester, July 2016. Dark brown in colour with a tight, beige, head. Plenty of toasted malts, coffee notes, some plain chocolate and leafy hops, before a dryish finish. Very drinkable.

Draft at Brewery Tap Leeds. Brown color, light tan head. Aroma of burnt brownies. Taste has soft roast with a lightly bitter finish. Not bad.
