330ml bottle bought at the Trembling Madness Drinks shop in York. Shared with Finn back home. Rocky beige head, good amount of lacing. Dark brown body colour. Smell of dark malts, bone dry. Moderate roasted flavours of brown and black malts joined by anise and pine-like bitterness to the ending. Medium bodied. Drinking pleasure, full of soul (Tromsø 27.11.2013).

Bottle, Chester Beer & Wine. Deep dark brown pour with a tan head. Pleasing nose of roasted malts, grapefruit , chocolate and hops. Sweet flavour with further roasted character and some decent hop bitterness. Decent balance struck. Very tidy Black IPA and a fitting reflection on British society today.

Keg at The Hanging Bat. Black body with a thin off-white head. Light lacing. Aroma of Ribena and chocolate. Not as intense or hoppy as I was expecting. Flavour of coffee, Mars Bar, plum and Twiglet dust. Medium body with an oily mouthfeel. Average carbonation. A very good Black IPA but lacking the complexity and intensity of the best I’ve tried (namely BrewDog’s Libertine and Buxton’s Black Rocks and Imperial Black).

Bottle from YNWA pub, Kolding. Almost black with a big and lasting beige head. Aroma is sweet, malty, roasted malt and moderate hoppy - pine and grapefruit. Flavor is quite sweet and rather bitter. Dry and rather bitter finish. 011113

Wspaniale piwo ciemne IPA, a w zasadzie czarne nieprzeswitujace. Piana spora i wielgachna, trwala. Aromatyczne bukiety zapachowe chmieli. W smaku takze nasycone goryczkowoscia i wytrawnoscia. Troche nut czekoladowego budyniu. Finisz dlugi i chmielny.

Bottle @ benzai. Very dark brown to black colour with a huge light brown head. Smells very hoppy, fruity, grapefruit.. Amazing ipa smell.. But no sign of roastyness, chocolate or coffee. Tastes very bitter, very fruity, very hoppy, slightly roasty, a hint of chocolate. Quite a lovely beer. Medium body, nice carbo.

Bottle [thanks to jmgreenuk for buying this bottle for me] @ home shared with Dutchdrebus. Black color, huge a bit soapy, good lacing light brown head that lasts for a pretty long time. Aroma has a lovely hoppyness on top of the strong malty base. Taste malts, lightly roasty, nicely hoppy, very nice bitterness. Average body, medium carbonation. Nice.
