This black IPA is loaded with dark malts for a slightly roasty character, but heavily hopped with southern hemisphere hops. Topaz, Nelson Sauvin, Kohatu and Ella give this beer a massive stone fruit flavour and aroma. close your eyes and you’re drinking a massive juicy TIPA, open your eyes and your met with the abyss!

Keg at Blind Tiger, Peterborough. A triple BIPA, maybe my first! Pours unclear deep brown with a beige to tan cap. Aroma: roasted malts, chocolate, umami, earthy, pine. Taste: moderate sweet & bitter, big roast, chocolate, liquorice, grapefruit, boozy. Medium to full body with fine carbonation. A big beer, quite boozy, lots going on!

Can at home after an evening around at Peter and Mariska’s, and a day at Hayling, 28th May 23. Pours a dark brown, almost black, but mostly clear monster. Aroma is cocoa, citrus and stone fruit, earthy. Taste is cocoa, roasted malts, fruity, interesting and substantial with the abv. Good

440ml can. Poured an unclear dark brown colour with a lasting frothy light tan head. The aroma is roasty malt, light resin. The flavour is moderate liqourice bitter, with a light piney resin, roasty, earthy, warm, light boozy alcohol, liqourice bitter palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation. A nice and obviously boozy BIPA, but the promised flavours seemed to be drowned out by the alcohol and were very subtle at best.

440ml can. Pours a very dark brown with a beige/light brown head. Aroma of chocolate/roast malts, alcohol, piney resin. Taste is hoppy, piney, resinous, citrus, chocolate, roast malts, warming alcohol, bitter and boozy finish. Great BIPA but the booze is NOT well hidden.
