Black pour with a solid big creamy beige head. Nice lacing. Coffee, fruity and grapefruit hoppy aroma. Full body. Tad sweet and a fine bitterness. Average to soft carbonation with a creamy texture. Coffee, chocolate, roasted, mild pine and grapefruit hoppy flavor. Tasty little (big) devil.

On tap at New Bohemia. Pours a deep brown with a tan head that dissipates slowly to the edges and laces. Aroma combines earthy dark grains and grass with a bit of pine bitterness. Flavor has lots of earthy dark grains with and bit of grass and pine bitterness as well as some dry roasted malts in the finish.

Fairly mild black IPA, despite the stout black body. Small creamy beige head, decent lacing. Faint roast grain aroma, taste has slight roast grain bite.Some lingering coffee bitterness, somewhat slick and slippery.

Bottle from Bottle Shop at home. Dark black pour with thin bubbly tan head. Aroma is less roasty than expected - faint orange/bright hoppiness. Taste is nice. Mix of hoppy flavors - orange and pine mostly. Crisp bitterness. Not that roasted tasting. Lasting boozy finish. Solid black IPA.

Keg from BrewDog, Edinburgh. Black body with ruby highlights. Thin beige head. Excellent lacing. Aroma of pine, cocoa and grapefruit. Flavour is very hoppy and bitter - pine needles, espresso and big citrus notes. Medium body with an oily texture. Soft fizz. Reminds me of BrewDog’s Libertine, with added raw bitterness.

Bottle from BottleDog London. Black almost dark brown beer lasting tan head. Grapefruit hop aroma. Some papery chocolate flavour. Bitterness on the finish. It’s a slightly better than usual black ipa buti still struggle to understand why this style exists. Better than most.
