A rich, creamy Nordic double black IPA. Swinging to the fences with spice and roast, but backed with a big tropical stonefruit punch.

Dark brown. Thin head. Big leafy, grapefruity hops on the nose with toast and light molasses. Lots of grapefruit so you think it'll be bitter but it's only lightly so. Soft malts, mellow dark sugars. Bitter towards the finish. Full body. This might be my favourite Jackknife beer so far.

On tap at Main Street, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out a robust mix of roasted malt and big piney, earthy hops. Flavour is rich and forceful, with a huge roasted malt character that gives way to an assertive piney, almost fruity like hop character. Forceful yet surprisingly brilliantly balanced. Very low bitterness on the finish. This is really well-constructed.
