I guess it fits in this category because of its strength and it does have some hoppiness. The hops are more in the order of a PA tho. And it’s kind of weird to have a cocoa hopped beer. As others have said, it doesn’t work so well.

On tap at HopCat Madison pours a deep, brick red on the verge of brown with some lacing, white head. Nose is very true to style, nutty, toasty, malt, some soap, resin, dried citrus peel. Flavor follows, chewy grains, toast, soap, malt, pine. Full bodied and dry. Solid.

Draft at HopCat Madison. Dark brown color, thin off beige head. Aroma of chocolate and light citrus. Taste is fruity cocoa, roasty coffee. OK.

Summer Beer Dabbler 2014. Bottle. Light roast and light hops; and actually everything about it seems on the light side. OK.

Can. Light chocolate malt and orange peel aroma. Black-brown with large tan head. Sweet caramel-chocolate and moderately bitter orange peel flavor. Decent body. Not bad but straight forward.

12oz bottle. Deep brown-red body. Steady beige head. Mild but true aroma. has some minty chocolate bitterness up front, but sort of finishes hollow..not much depth. Better than expected, as it is drinkable, not off, and relatively to style. The cheap or sparing use of good malt tones come through as expected, sugary, cheap feel. Has the body of a 4.5% beer in a sense. I would drink this again, not so bad for cheap macro-micro.

Bottle at a tasting event. From notes. Not a whole lot of "IPA" going on here. Mostly Roasty malts. Meh.
