Black color. The aroma is mild, some doughy smell. Lean mouthfeel, weak, some dark malts without the depth of a Stout, the cold brew comes through barely as dirty pond water. Very messy and rather unpleasant.

Black color. A good combination of roasted malts and resiny hops; dry, not too strong, with prominent roastiness. Not difficult to brew a Black IPA, this is ok, mid of the pack.

Draught at the brewery
Black color, tan creamy head. Roasty; "Dry" is a synonym for "thin" and that's what you get. Metallic finish, a bit ashy.
Underwhelming.

On tap at Silver Valley, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted caramel, English malt, and light earthy hops buried deep underneath. Flavour is bold, with lots of English bready malt, light toasted caramel and earthy English hops underneath. Robust and nicely balanced. Quite authentic. Pretty nice stuff.

On tap at Silver Valley, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted caramel and light bready malt. Flavour is definitely not right, bringing out some tartness that definitely should be there, and toasted caramel bready malt underneath. This is off and needs fixing.

On tap at Silver Valley, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is very spicy, being dominated by the chai. Flavour is likewise dominated by the chai spice, with light lactose underneath and an overall milky palate. Fun chai spiciness here, just not a fan at all of this.

On tap at Silver Valley, pours a hazy amber orange with a small white head. Aroma is on the malty side, with earthy spicy hops underneath, and caramel malt upfront. Flavour is likewise on the malty side, with toasted caramel malt, spicy earthy hops and an overall English character despite the North American ingredients. Decent stuff.

On tap at Silver Valley, pours a clear caramel golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of toasted caramel, English bready malt and a hint of English hops. Flavour is along the same lines, with a solid balance of English bready caramel malt and beer light hops. Appropriately constructed and actually quite true to style. Solid.

On tap at Silver Valley, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out biscuity malt, straw and a hint of cereal sweetness. Flavour is clean, with biscuity malt, light floral notes and straw. Clean and easy to drink. Decent.

Draft - Not much of a nose. Clear dark gold with a decent white head. Sweet caramel malts and a touch of bitterness in the finish.
