This Black IPA is dry hopped with Amarillo, Chinook and Simcoe. Giving it tropical fruit, orange notes and pine notes that blend with the hint of roastyness from the dark grain.

16oz can pours a dark black, brown head. Nose has what you want, bread crust, pine, nuts, some hand soap. Flavor is very malty, some cocoa but more black licorice and toast. If there is a complain its that the pine is a pinch absent in the mouth. Some soap. Full bodied, nearly dry. The pine and roastiness fade some. Still good enough. 8 7.5 6.5 7 7
