Firestorm is a full-bodied India Black Ale with a dark, roasted malt backbone, a strong hop aroma, and aggressive bitterness. This India Black Ale sits at a high 7.2% and pours jet black with a thick mocha head. There are hints of chocolate, caramel, and hops on the nose with a storm of roasted malts and a strong, lasting bitter finish.
