Part of our Signature series, this is a generously hopped robust Black IPA chock full of flavour. A chunky malt grist provides the backbone for the hops to shine. Expect a resolute upfront bitterness that is countered by a tropical fruit hop kick.

Cask at The Hop, Leeds, Friday 13th November 2015. Pours dark brown a bit chestnut brown in fact. Good fruity beer, much easier to drink than the 6%+ abv might suggest. Nice beer, not as good as the Ratman and Robin though. A6 A4 T7 P4 Ov13 3.4

Draft at Jolly Crispin. Very dark maroon color, big beige ice cream cone head, the first time I’ve seen that in England. Aroma of pine and burnt espresso. Taste has bitter pine resin and coffee. Delicious.
