Black IPA with 30% rye in recipe. It is presented in the glass in black, with mahogany reflections. The foam is abundant and fine-grained, with a long persistence. On the nose the roasting notes (especially green coffee) are well balanced by the generous aroma hopping carried out with our cold hopping system. On the palate the rather enveloping body is immediately evident, also given by the medium alcohol content (7% vol.). The toasted notes of the malts are again clearly evident, flanked by the citrus and exotic part of the most modern American hops used. Before drinking it, leave it out of the fridge for half an hour.

Bottiglia. Un territorio olfattivo dominato dal fruttato. L'intensità olfattiva è elevata e la durata è sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma cremosa e dalla buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine, ma nel finale le bollicine producono una schiuma graziata, con carbonazione eccessiva. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è pronunciato. La forza gustativa è elevata e la persistenza è buona. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il finale è un po' rustico. In bocca l'aroma è quello di miele, crosta di panettone, cioccolato, caffè, liquirizia, frutta secca, resina, agrumi, spezie e arancia rossa.

Bottle shared in HW - cheers to Tippy. Pours brown with a tight, creamy beige head. Lightly sweet, lots of earthy bitterness, torched pine, a little baking cocoa. Light to medium bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Ashy roast in the finish, drying. Alright.

Tasting at Chez Cloin. Thanks to Tips. Opaque dark brown beer, decent pale tan head. Smooth palate, a little soft and fairly dry, modest fine carbonation. Thin dark malts, bitterish dark malt roast, no real dark chocolate. Smooth pine and bitterish citrus peel. Dry finish. Thin and slightly harsh CDA.
