Juicy Black New England IPA brewed in two-sided Zoom collab with our friends from a worlds-away town of Tartu, Estonia.
Dark and dense as a winter night and seductive as tropical breakfast.

Can shared with Gabor Gábor and Undos. Deep brown to black pour, thin, off-white head. Nose is intense tropical fruits, full NEIPA. Taste is low bitterness, light to mid, fruity sweetness with just a touch of dark malts. Closes with a fruity finish, has a light to meidum, semi-creamy body and soft carbonation. I'm admittedly partial to black IPAs, but this is great!

Can. Pours almost black with a small white head. Aroma is dark malts, juicy, lots of fruit, especially mango, pineapple, peach, passion fruit. Medium body, smooth. Flavour is smooth and rather creamy, oats, dark malts but rather restrained. Lot of oats and wheat, definitely NEIPA character for a BIPA. Lots of tropical fruit, especially mango and passion fruit. Peach. Weird combo, NEIPA with BIPA, but quite nice.

Can from Beers@Moviefun, Bruges. Hazy black, stable, foamy, beige head. Aroma of pink grapefruit, pomegrenate, papaya, orange peel, pine resin, toast, cocoa nibs. Taste has sweetish plum, pomegrenate & fig over toasty, fondant-like maltiness, bit nutty; earthy, grapefruity hoppy finish, lots of citrus actually, just a pinch of powdery fondant again, slight warming gin-like alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Near-perfect BIPA, indeed with apparent NEIPA characteristics.

Can 50 cl. Looks like a good stout - dark brown, almost black, lush creamy foam. Hoppy aroma: fruits, passion fruit, mango, pineapple, resinous needles, oranges with zest, timid hints from burnt barley. Taste: mango, orange, a little coconut, a little grass and hay, soft bitterness (a little pine and earthy), velvety and fleeting burnt, lightest hint of hop-burn, juicy. Interesting brew, I like it.

AF versioon siis. Magusam, suhkrune, nats tärklisene, humal on palju mahedam (purki pandud u. kuu tagasi, ehk suht värske), veits alksi ka. See on selgelt rohkem NEIPA poole kaldu kui pühaste versioon. Ok, pühaste meeldis rohkem. 3.3-3.4ish

500ml can from In Pivo Veritas in Moscow. Pours hazy black with a thin beige head. Aroma is citrus, tropical. Taste is medium sweet, juicy, citrus. Light bitter finish. ABV is well hidden. Nothing about it says black IPA except the colour. A dumb and expensive (₽420) gimmick beer.
