IPA is the King of Craft beer and this IPA is Heart of Darkness flagship. A mixture of the great Columbus and Cascade IPA hops provide piney, citrus flavours with hints of bergamot and grapefruit. A big, hoppy beer which is not for the faint of heart. Recommended for experienced Craft beer drinkers and those that can appreciate big, bold, bitter flavours.

Planke på Heart of Darkness sammen med Kitty mars-19: lett uklar gylden med fint skum som varer. Grapefrukt, bergamott-appelsiner, karamell og furunål i en solid maltkropp som utfyller smaksbildet. Stor fylde og allikevel farlig lettdrikkelig.
