Black IPA je uzbudljiv pivski stil koji nije samo u nazivu oprečan sam sebi. Ovo pivo, koje u isto vrijeme u nazivu nosi pridjev pale i black odlikuje kremasto tijelo, duboko smeđa, gotovo crna boja te karakteristične hmeljne arome upotpunjene umjerenom gorčinom. Tamni sladovi u usipku kontribuiraju sa suptilnim prženim i čokoladnim notama dok hmelj daje kontrast svojim citrusnim i voćnim aromama zahvaljujući provjerenoj kombinaciji hmeljeva Simcoe, Amarillo i Citra.

SLAD: Pale ale slad, Chocolate malt, Carafa III special, zobene pahuljice
HMELJ: Amarillo, Simcoe, Citra

On tap at Grif Bar @ Vintage Industrial Bar, Zagreb. Shared with Marko. Dark brown, small creamy off-white head. Lightly to moderately hoppy, lightly fruity. A roasty touch, some herbs or pine. Flavour is roasty, toasty, lightly hoppy. A touch of coffee. Light body, moderate carbonation. Dry finish, generally light and shy.

Tap at Deja Brew, Zadar. Black body, lasting beige head. Citric and lightly nutty aroma. Creamy malty body, countered by a lighter but notable herbal-citric presence, okay bitterness, almost milk caramelly touches somewhere underneath. Well made actually, the best hoppy fake craft I've had in a long while!

On tap @Medina Škrinja, Varaždin. Deep brown pour, almost black, half finger frothy off-white head, medium retention. Broken lacing on the glass. Nice on the nose, roasted malt, fruity notes, nicely balanced. Medium body, medium carbonation, smooth and soft mouthfeel, average texture. Easily drinkable, goes down nicely. Balanced bittersweet taste. Aroma of roasted malt, citrus, coal. Coffee, cocoa, lingering bitterness. Medium lasting finish, dry, bitter, roasty. Tasty.
