Nice floral nose. Lots of hop oils with roasted grain. Very dry, intense with nice fruity bitterness. The roast is in the foreground, nice dry bittered, moderate grainy with a great floral roasted bitter aftertaste. Very nice Black IPA.

330ml bottle. Quasi black colour with average, thick, firm, frothy to creamy, moderately to mostly lasting, moderately lacing, beige head. Roasty, dark malty, minimally sweet-ish, chocolately malty and citrusy, slightly piney and minimally grassy, hoppy aroma, notes of lemon, grapefruit, orange, orange zest, a resinous touch. Taste is dry, bitter, roasty, slightly chocolately dark malty, bitter, piney, minimally citrusy hoppy, notes of dark chocolate, resin, zesty hints of lemon and orange. Slightly oily texture, smooth and soft palate, fine, soft, minimally prickly carbonation. Excellent nose, a bit disharmonious and weird in taste, sadly no reproduction of the citrusy flavours on the same level of quality and intensity - pretty good overall.
