Double Dry Hopped India Dark Ale… This dark india ale will come to exist and in time will rely heavily on oats, wheat dextrin and rye malt. Acute shockability will render high fruit injections of Citra, Simcoe and mosaic giving out fleshy, tropical freshness enclose in darkness.

Keg @ North Bar, Leeds. Black with a thin head. It is a sweet-fruit black IPA and this tropicalness lingers in its aftertaste, it is very aromatic too, but its darks malts give it a dirty edge though.

440ml Can - Hazy dark brown with some red tinges. Pine, grapefruit and hints of fudge and raisins in the aroma. Hoppy. fruity and slightly tangy taste with grapefruit, pine, fudge, caramel and faints hints of raisins. i suspect they used sinamar with this as the dark and roasted notes are rather subdued in spite of the colour. Tasty though.
