A collective mindfulness for complexity and modern hoppy expression brought us to the pinnacle of enjoyment. A black IPA imagined in real time, layered with intuitive character malt and hopped in layers with Chinook, Simcoe Cryo, Centennial, and Amarillo. Warmed chocolate challah, pine sap, and fresh sliced Cara Cara oranges build in the aroma, while a round bitterness follows on the palate into medium roast drip coffee and minty, misty, tall trees.

Can from Tavour. Pours dark brown with a huge white head that did a Guinness. Then it turned foamy and persisted with some lacing. Aroma of somewhat toasty malt and some citrus Then earthy/Piney but not much resin. Malty but not sweet. The flavor is somewhat earthy, citrus and malt. Dark malt. good black IPA.

Dark brown, with a fairly thick head. Big piney aroma, slight orange, dark malt. Very bitter, again with pine, citrus, bitter dark malt. Fantastic hop character, big dark malts. Intense - just the way this style should be.

473mL can. Pours black with a beige head. Tons of dry, almost ashy roasted malts and woody pine on the nose. Flavour has a rich and woody malt profile, great roast, gentle ash, and a dry, woody pine hop expression. Absolutely fantastic, this is a phenomenal black IPA.

On tap at Holy Mountain - Phinney, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is assertive, with intense roasted malt, woody piney hops, a touch of cocoa, bread crusts, and light resins. Flavour is powerful and balanced, with big piney hops, moderate roast, some dry bitter cocoa, crusty bready malt, and finishing pronouncedly bitter. Expertly constructed. Fantastic.
