Bottle @ home shared with Dutchdrebus. Opaque pitch black color, medium sized light beige head. Smell malts, lightly hops, lightly soapy, slightly roast. Taste lightly malts, lightly roast, old hops, soapy, slightly bitter. Pretty average imo. As a Black IPA it’s no good at all.

Bottle. Pretty much black, huge brown head with good retention. Aroma of dark milk chocolate. Taste is bitter cocoa, dark coffee. Not sure how old this bottle is, there isn’t a date that I can find, not sure if the hops have faded or not.

Opaque black brown beer, good pale tan head. Palate is light and a little crisp. Smooth dark malts, no roast or bitterness. Touch of dark chocolate and cream. Mellow sweet orange and pine. Finishes smooth and semi dry. Well balanced and mellow bipa.

Bouteille 33cl, BB 31/07/2015, still unsure why an IPA gets such long BB date. Brune, col épais moka crémeux. Arôme est agréablement houblonné axé sur des pointes d’agrumes. Malts chocolaté, grillé et caramel viennent balancer le tout. Palais reste centré sur un malté qui offre également des notes torréfiées. Le houblonné arrive en retrait et ajoute une amertume citronnée qui reste légèrement en retrait. Note herbacée, agrumes avec ces houblons rappelant une influence zélandaise et US.

(bottle, 33cl) Darkest brown, almost black coloured hue with a beige medium-sized foamy head. Piney and fruity hoppy aroma, combined with a moderately roasted malty touch with notes of dark chocolate and grapefruit. Moderately bitter and slightly sweet flavour, medium bodied with a modest carbonation. Mildly roasted malt-character with hints of chocolate, a tinge of burnt wood and most of all fruity and slightly piney hops, including accents of grapefruit and exotic fruits; bitter and delicately sweet, balanced roast-malty and hoppy finish. Very good and quite easy-going. 08.X.13

Huge, dense, brownish-beige head over very deep brown beer with red reflections. Aromatic new world hops, exotic fruit, rainwater. Bitterish, tobacco, fruity, chocolate, black cardamom. Not very well-bodied, tad watery, but quite slick, even light powdery feel. Finish has something acidic. Quite good black IPA, more than acceptable.
