Pours black, large fading head.Nose shows roasted malt, a bit of a fruity hop notes, slight piny notes. Subtle.Flavours include more roasted malt, a bit more fruit but quite restrained, light bready notes.

Can from Brewcraft at home. Opaque black pour, thin frothy off-white slightly tan head that looks very nice. Aroma is deep rich dark almost burnt malt with a dank floral hop aroma - somewhat similar to TO ØL’s delicious Black Malts Body Salts Black DIPA, with less booze. Taste follows - dark dark chocolate but not creamy or rich, not a roasted or coffee malt flavor so much as just “black”. Combines well with the dank hops to conjure a dark jungle buzzing with life. Dank flavor seems very Simcoe, but could be power of suggestion. Very good for a lighter black IPA. Would get again for sure. Doesn’t feel too light.

Taster at Sydney beer festival. Black beer with tightly packed white head. Citric nose with touches of pepper and caramel. Nice lacing. Bitter followed by umami and dry raisins. Really good beer, earthy, adult, seriously contemplative.

Can. Almost black with a beige head. Choc-orange aroma with lychees, nectarines, brioche. Bittersweet taste follows with strongish slightly resinous bitterness. Lightish bodied - a little too so for me. But vibrant and lovely.

From a 355ml can on 16/9/2018 (shared with Butz). Pours a deep brown with a small head. Has a mild nose of chocolate, roasted malt and fruity hops. The flavour is pretty intense, with lots of dark and milk chocolate, hints of caramel and coffee, a whack of roasted malt, and some pretty firm hops. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. A very hoppy black ale - almost a bit black IPA like in character. Would have preferred a touch more sweetness, but it's a relatively minor quibble. Very well made.
