Tap at Coda as "Lucille Black IPA" - pour is indeed black, with a soapy lace - nose is sweet and roasty black malt and green hoppiness - flavor is fairly bitter - the hop character is perhaps a bit too citric to.compliment the malt.character (almost tangy), and there is a slight garlic note - some vanilla and chocolate finish, a little "diesel" hop oiliness - smells better than it tastes.
