Bottle shared at the pre GBBF chriso’s tasting day 2 07/08/2016. Thanks to Colin for this one. A reddy mahogany brown coloured pour with a loose tan head. Aroma is nutty brown bread, malt loaf, earthy hop, pine. Flavour is composed of mint, brown bread, sugars, thin, slightly mineral. Palate is thin, sugary, mineral, blood. Ok. Not much of a black ipa.

Bottle split at Bruce’s pad, thanks to Nick Scott for bagging me this one, 24/06/14. Extremely dark mahogany brown with a moderate tan swirl and edgeing. Nose is light pine, dark berry fruit notes, light coffee, roasty tones. Taste comprises light roast, earthy cocoa rub, light pine, dark berry fruit. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, light hop rinse in the close. Ok CDA, lacks the punchy hop and citricana presence I crave in the style but I’ve had worse!

Tasting at Bruce’s pad. Thanks to CDA bloodhound Colin! Semi opaque dark brown beer, tiny tan head. Palate is light and dry. Moderate carbonation. Big earthy coffee, not rich but quite strong. Light bitterness in the dry finish. Tasty but could be hoppier!
