Our Double IPA’s evil twin, a BLACK DOUBLE IPA. This beer is darker, more mysterious, hoppier, angrier, higher in alcohol, and overall, pretty delicious!. Tons of hops were used in this beer (Nugget, Ahtanum, Cascade and Willamette just to name a few) and a lot of Pale Malt. The beer is finished with a touch of Dark Chocolate Wheat Malt for color and to balance the beer out a bit.

Bottle during RBWG. Pours a dark brown with small beige head. The aroma is pine and roast. Medium mouth with strong pine, roast, grapefruit, resin, nice bitterness. Good.

Bottle at RBWG in the hotel. Pours black-brown with a rich, brown foam head. Nose holds lots of pine, some ripe citrus, mellow roast. Medium sweet flavor, some ripe grapefruit, light roast, dirt. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Pretty resinous to finish, some earth, mellow roasty dark malts, some grapefruits, orange. Not bad.

Served on draft at the brewpub. Pours a clear very dark brown color with a large creamy tan head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of roasted malts, chocolate and earthy notes. The taste is roasted malts with citrus and tropical hops. Medium-full bodied, a bit of booze and the hops linger. Decent.
