Can from Gedeelde Vreugde. Cloudy black, small, foamy, beige head. Aroma of blue plum, mango, pineapple, grapefruit peel, fondant, espresso. Taste has sweetish plum & mango, bitter grapefruit in a dark-chocolatey malt body. Piney hops in the finish along with bitter citrus peel, mango & coffee nib. Medium body, oily texture, soft carbonation. Soft on the roasted profile but just the right amount of fruitiness.

Can from Bierkiste. Oops, just bought it (probably on) the MHD without realizing, curious how this one ages. Pretty dark black, with a medium brown head. Aroma is citrusy, pine and a bit of caramel. Nice flavor, not as much tropi-fruit as these hops would deliver when fresh I guess. But it's smooth and well rounded, roasted malts not overpowering the hops nor vice versa. Not too sweet. Bitterness is well balanced. Great black IPA!

Intensiver Hopfenbeginn. Gleichzeitig viel Schokolade, röstig, moderate Bitterkeit. Die Hopfigkeit bleibt konstant, würzig, etwas trocken. Ansteigende Bitterkeit, das Schokoladenaroma bleibt konstant. Langer Nachgeschmack. 12/9/11/9/8/11

Can from SinH4. Murky brown color with off-white head. Quite a bit of chocolate in the aroma. Quite grassy and bright citrus tones. A bit of dried fruit. Seems somewhere in between dark and hoppy and can't find balance between the two.
