Bottle, Legacy. Very dark brown, with a head that frothed up quite a bit. The aroma has chocolate and pine, woody notes, some nice roast. On the palate, this is quite dry, and a roastiness that borders on harsh. The rye lends the beer chewiness, but it’s not the biggest body for the style. Hoppy, piney, dry finish. I like it, but mostly because I like the style - it’s an edgy version that has some structural issues, especially being a little thin and austere.

2016-11-05, draught at the brewery, 5.8% ABV, 6-4-7-4-14=35
The aroma is lightly cheesy.
This batch, although equally roasty, seems more hoppy and resinous than the previous one I had, last year. An improvement.

2015-01-11, draught at 12 Kings, Vancouver; 6.5% ABV, 6-4-7-3-13=33
Black color with brownish head. Mild aroma of roasted malt. Quite dry, but with a good body strength; smooth mouthfeel; the roasted character is aggressive, rather ashy, followed by some hop resins and strong bitterness.
Good, but more ashy, burnt and less hop quality than other Black IPAs.

Black,lasting tan head.Nose of light malt/citrus hops and brown sugar.Palate of light roast,dry malt & citrus hops.Medium hop finish. This beer has somewhat raised my low opinion of this brewery.

Draft - Roast and lots of pine. Jet brown with a nice light brown head. Lots of bitterness up front, pine and a roast rich finish. Pretty decent.

On tap at Bridge, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out earthy hops, a decent amount of rye, and roasted malt. Flavour is quite roasty and earthy, with the rye coming out upfront, along with moderate roasted and highly earthy hops. A little dirty, but still solid. Finished earthy and with a slight sweetness. Needs a little work, but it's quite decent.
