Reviewed from notes. Bottom of the can stamped 11/07/2019 and consumed 12/24/2019.
Can to English pint glass.
Appearance: super dark brown to almost black color with a three finger eggshell white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light messy lace
Aroma: black coffee roast, lean citrusy & earthy hop tones, subtle piney hops, sly dark chocolate tones and a light sweet wafer maltiness
Flavor: pretty much mirrors the aromas but seems to leave out that dark chocolate character - so basically - roasty, citrusy & piney sweet and a light malty vibe; finishes mostly with the black coffee roast and citrusy & earthy hoppiness and dry
Texture: medium bodied, this is a sipper; light smoothness and somewhat tracking on the "palate wrecking" capabilities - maybe on a medium sort of strength of those capabilities
Overall: I did like this black IPA for the most part but it's not a high top tier one. I'd still bang this again.
