Bottled. Black colour, mediumsized beigeish brown head. Aroma is citrus, some fruity and liquorice tones with mild roast as well as some zesty and sprucelike notes. Flavour is roasted malts, some floral and fruity hoppiness along with mild liquorice as well as some slight alcohol tones.

C'est une Black IPA bien réalisée que nous propose ici la brasserie Toccalmatto avec une amertume mise sur les devants, saillante et racée. On regrettera cependant la place trop dominante de l'amertume qui aurait pu laisser les arômes de malts torréfiés davantage s'exprimer car on en perd de la richesse aromatique. Le visuel est sur un brun très foncé quasi noir avec une mousse brune disparaissant rapidement. Le nez est agréable, sur le caramel, le résineux, le café, une touche de chocolat et d'écorce d'orange. A la dégustation, on perd cet équilibre avec une amertume prenant très largement l'ascendant sur des arômes de résineux et d'herbes prégnants. Côté amertume, on est servi cependant, racée et brillante, celle-ci est très appréciable dès l'attaque. Elle est d'autant plus mise en avant que le sucre n'est pas trop dosé. Café et chocolat, se décèlent alors plutôt en rétro, de façon relativement discrète. La texture fine, n'empêche pas une bonne présence en bouche. L'alcool à 6,3 % est impeccable dans son rôle. Le final, long est sur une amertume plus sèche. Black IPA plaisante donc pour un style que je trouve quelquefois délaissé par les brasseurs, et qui est pourtant un terrain de jeu très favorable à la créativité.

Bottle from Geers. Pours hazy black with a stable, thin, tan head. Aroma of orange peel, pink grapefruit, prune, cherry tomato, toast, blood orange, dark chocolate.Taste has bitter pine, toast, orange peel, some blood orange perhaps, only subtly sweet & malty. Piney, herbal hoppy finish, dry & bitter, more pronounced toast & coffee roast with an umami accent. Medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation. Exemplary!
Blackberry, licorice, orange zest oils, fruity coffee. Light to medium sweet, a bit tangy, pleasantly fruity, bittersweet finish with hints of dark chocolate. Solid as a rock.

33cl bottle from AbeerVinum, Rimini, Italy, excited four months ago. Pours dark, slightly purple, with cappuccino foam, very fine. Aroma is toasted, licorice, a little balsamic. Body is slightly dense, with good carbonation, maybe a little excessive. Taste is insistingly bitter. Finish is not particular.

Bottiglia (@Rudat, Oespel): Literally black, presumably hazy, medium-sized and slowly collapsing tanned head; solid dry toasty and roasty and caramelly nose with a piney to flowery background; moderate to solid bitter flavour, medium bodied, very soft; coffeeish and roasty flavours in the flowery-bitter finish. More a decent Dry Stout than an IPA...

Tap at Open Baladin, Roma. Pours black with a small beige head. Aroma of hop, citrus fruit, light roasted malt, chocolate and pine. Light sweetness, toward heavy bitterness. Light body, slight oily and watery texture, soft carbonation. Finish is dry, and of bitter fruit and chocolate.

Pours complete black with a rich layer of head. Tiny bubbles form the foam. Aroma is rich and smooth, intense cocoa nibs. Dark malts, chocolate, herbal hops, a bit grassy. Medium body. Rich smooth mouthfeel. Cocoa is also intense in flavour, dark malts, very hoppy-herbal, bitter, bitter dark chocolate, a little sweet. Medium long bitter finish. What a brilliant black IPA!
