473ml can [2025 "vintage"]. Jet black colour with slightly late awakening, huge, creamy, moderately to mostly lasting, moderately lacing, tan head. Roasty, slightly bready-spicy, dark malty and dank, resinous, piney, hoppy aroma, notes of dark chocolate, weed, whiffs of of liquorice, salmiac, rye flour. Taste is roasty, minimally bready-spicy, dark malty, minimally caramel malty and bitter, resinous, piney hoppy, notes of dark chocolate, resin, a touch of liquorice, rye bread, burnt caramel; lingering, bitter roasty and bitter hoppy, oily, minimally alcoholic finish.
Oily to viscous texture, smooth and soft, minimally greasy palate, fine, dense, soft, creamy carbonation.
Intense, concentrated, viscous, not overly but sufficiently complex, sophisticated rye malt usage ensures pleasing spicy- and creaminess - excellent!

Siste lørdag i august, en strålende sommerdag perfekt for å gripe karpen (carpe diem), noe jeg gjør på Melkebaren: brunsvart med utmerket skum helt til bunns. Furunål, italiensk espresso og mørke dessertchokolader. Høy og mørk med tørr avslutning og pregnant mersmak.

17/VIII/24 - 1Pt. can @ GBV No-Festival-Bottle-Share, BB: n/a, “Can’t Die Me Love” (2024-765) Thanks to Erwin for sharing the can!
Clear dark brown beer, small creamy beige head, stable, non adhesive. Aroma: wow, very dank, very hoppy, bit earthy, some alcohol, a bit cheesy, you can almost chew the hops just by smelling it. MF: ok carbon, medium to full body. Taste: alcohol, good hoppy bit, nice roast, alcohol touch, dank hops, a bit earthy, a hint of chocolate. Aftertaste: bitter, roasted, malty, sweet, hoppy, more roast, decent!

Dark brown, thin head. The aroma is minty, hoppy, lots of chocolate. Lots of hop, big sweet malt, but the bitterness is mellow, which allows the chocolate to come through. And there's herbal note that goes over top of this, too. Excellent.

473mL can, pours black with a medium tan head. Aroma brings out bold roasted malt, intense piney hops, and some earthiness -- smells fantastic. Flavour is robust, with a wonderfully intense balance of piney hops, big roasted malt, and a hint of earthiness. Mmm, this is jizzingly good -- yes, more (imperial) black IPAs like this, Third moon -- ditch the chalk. Bitter pine and roasty in beautiful balance. Excellent.

Black colour, brown head. Full bodied, it's smooth, it has mild residual sweetness, accents of roasted malt, but not aggressive or ashy as some other Black IPAs can be; alcohol warmth in the finish, and infinitesimal fruitiness.
Very good.

16oz (thx, Chris S.!) on Alex's porch shared with Ryan. Appearance: dark brown with a beige head. Aroma: a weird mix of hops and roasted malt, maybe with some meaty notes. Taste: along the same lines, a bit boozy, finishes with roasty bitterness. Overall: an ok one, not that great as the Conjuration #4.
