We love brewing big flavoursome Imperial Milkshake IPAs and this is no exception. We decided to reincarnate an old trendy beer style - the Black IPA! with our own Wander beyond twist. Dry hopped with El Dorado and brewed with strawberries, cacao nibs and vanilla. This beer is creamy, bold and lush.

440ml can. Murky, darkest brown colour with small thick, creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, tan head. Sweet-ish, fruity and chocolately aroma, notes of strawberry, vanilla, some cocoa, roasted nuts. Taste is sweet, sugary, fruity, chocolately, minimally dry, hoppy, notes of lactose, strawberry, vanilla, milk chocolate, roasted nuts; moderately bitter, hoppy finish, well hidden alcohol. Creamy, oily texture, smooth and soft palate, fine and soft carbonation. Almost completely adjunct-dominated, liquid Fürst Pückler icecream, only some hop bitterness in the finish reminds of beer. Tasty - yes; but absurd in a way and not a result of sophisticated brewing, only of charging ready-made additives.

A tricky one to rate, incredible lactose creaminess and neapolitan nose, gets cloyingly artificial though. And doesn’t warm up so well

Neopolitan ice cream in a can. Hides it’s IPA’ness so well you’d think it was a stout

Tap (Szynkarnia, Wrocław). Mleczna czekolada w aromacie, przełamana nutą jakby winną w smaku stąd piwo jest bardziej w stronę wytrawnego czemu zdecydowanie przeczy aromat. Średnie ciało, lekkie w odbiorze, bardzo smaczne i aromatyczne piwo.

Black beer, thin head. Smells of strawberry and chocolate. Flavour has chocolate, strawberry, lactose, malt. A little hop to it, it's an interesting mix of a sweet stout and a black IPA. It's a little unusual but I'm a big fan.
