Can. Opaque black - brown beer, decent pale tan head. Palate is airy, mildly dry and has surprisingly modest carbonation. Mellow but tangy dark malts, mild dark malt cream. Tangy ripe fruits, some prune. Mellow hop spice. Pine. Ripe fruit finish. Tasty if a little ripe.

Can thanks to Daniel. It pours dark brown with small tan head. The aroma is soft, bitter - sweet, cocoa, toasted marshmallow, smores, toffee, toasty pine, and dark fruits. the taste is smooth, bitter-sweet, decent roast, earthy action, wood, resin, burnt pine, cocoa and coffee. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Pretty decent stuff, especially the aroma.

355ml can from Beer Gonzo. Pours black in colour with a beige foam head leaving lacing. Aroma of bready malt with roast and hoppy notes. Taste is malty, bready, roasted, dark chocolate with some mellow pine and citrus hop bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry tangy earthy bitter finish. Quite drinkable black IPA.

Can from Whole Foods - Indian School Plaza. Pours out with a nice inky black body and creamy beige head, reminiscent of a stout. Aroma favors the roast malts, while taste brings in a bit of fruitiness, and a bite which reminds me of a schwarzbier. The bite lingers on the palate with a hint of sweetness. Not expecting this to be so delicious....

Medium brown. Hop forward, with light toasty malt. Well balanced, dry version.
