Got in a trade with The-Adjunct-Hippie. 12 ounce bottle into tulip glass, no bottle dating. Pours crystal clear very dark brown color with a 1-2 finger dense and rocky light khaki head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of huge grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, passion fruit, mango, melon, lemon/orange peel, citrus rind, pepper, pine, chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, toasted dark bread, light smoke/char, and floral/grassy earthiness. Incredible aromas with awesome balance and complexity of juicy citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate roast/bready malt notes; with great strength. Taste of huge grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, passion fruit, mango, melon, lemon/orange peel, citrus rind, pepper, pine, chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, toasted dark bread, light smoke/char, and floral/grassy earthiness. Moderate pine/citrus rind and roast/charred bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of grapefruit, tangerine, pineapple, peach, passion fruit, mango, melon, lemon/orange rind, pepper, pine, chocolate, cocoa, coffee, toasted dark bread, and floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of juicy citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate roast/bready malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero lingering hop astringency after the finish. Light-moderate dryness from bitterness, increasing through the glass. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, moderately sticky/resinous, creamy/grainy, and slightly chalky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol for 8%. Overall this is an incredible Black DIPA! All around fantastic complexity, robustness, and balance of juicy citrus/tropical/pine hops and moderate roast/bready malt flavors; very smooth and easy to drink for the ABV. Amazing hop vibrancy with nice roast malt presence; without feeling too heavy or sweet. A highly enjoyable offering.
