A dark India Pale Ale packed with dank, resinous hops. The addition of de-bittered black malt creates a captivating dark color while crystal malt adds caramel-like flavors. Sanitas’ flagship Black IPA delivers a sharp uppercut of citrusy, floral hop character with a subtle roast note in the finish.

Can shared in CANary Wharf - sourced from Mr. B's in Denver. Pours clear brown with a light, creamy topping. The nose holds nice ashy roast crossed with dry chocolate and orange rind. Light to medium sweet flavour with notes of burnt wood, moderate floral hops, baking cocoa. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Ashy bitter finish, with bittersweet cocoa, woody dryness. Good CDA.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Manchester Wine and Liquors. Appearance is dark reddish brown (like a cola), no discernible sparkle, finger-width beige foamy head with poor retention and light soapy lacing. Aroma is strong roasted malts, toast, light vanilla and citrusy and earthy hops. Taste is moderate roasted malt with late earthy, resin bitterness. Palate is light bodied with thin texture, soft-to-average carbonation and more bitter than sweet finish. Overall, aroma is promising but taste pales in comparison with a palate that’s too thin.

Deep dark brown body with a thick, 3 centimetre tall dark tan head. Aroma of nice dank hops with a big roast presence that balances out nicely. Medium-bodied; Strong hoppy flavour of resinous and herbal hops that show well over top of the big roasted maltiness and finishes off nicely with some light sweetness. Aftertaste is clean and pungent - the hops are direct and show very well, and the malt ends the beer nice and dry. Overall, a very nice Black IPA with a great hop flavour balanced nicely with a good roasty malt finish. Nice to sample, especially super fresh & from a can! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Total Beverage in Thornton, Colorado on 15-March-2016 for US$2,00 sampled in my hotel room in Cheyenne, Wyoming a day later on 16-March-2016.
