IPA - Black / Cascadian Dark Regular|

This dark version of a heavily hopped IPA is characterized by a distinct hop bitterness. The roasted notes are rather subtle and harmoniously blend with the hop aromas, and there is no noticeable burnt or ashy taste. The original idea behind Black IPA was to create a beer with a dark color, but with a taste resembling a regular IPA. In the case of this double version, known as Double India Pale Ale, Simcoe and Idaho 7 hops were used, heavily hopped during the cold process.

Tap at Žižkov fest. Thx S, or S&A, don't remember anymore. Blackish body, off-white head. Sticky, malty, caramelly and somewhat citric aroma, herbal. Smooth, creamy taste, dry caramel notes, sticky slightly, with herbal and perfumey citric notes. Quite interesting and full take on the style, though not the most attractive necessarily.

Puszka 44cl (BB 10.10.2023). Raczej klasycznie choć z dużą dawką żywicy w aromacie, dość gładkie z niską goryczką i pijalne jak na swoje parametry.
