473mL can, pours black with a medium beige head with long retention. Nose has a nice, medium roasted malt character, with a nice piney, earthy hop bite to balance -- well, that smells legit. Flavour is well-balanced between the roasted malt and earthy, somewhat piney hops. Nice malt backbone to support the moderately bitter finish. Certainly not the best black IPA out there, but it's well-made and strikes the right notes. Good stuff.

Dark brown, with a thick head. Toasty, almost meaty aroma. On the palate it’s medium bodied with more of a thin, roasty, crackery character. Moderate bitterness, and minimal hop aromatics. Finishes with a bit of husky harshness.
