16 oz. can. Coconut is very obvious on the aroma. Lots of fizzy carbonation when poured. Flavor is equal parts coffee, coconut, and chocolate. Body is pretty good for a porter. Well done!

Can from tfontana, thanks for the trade! Lightly hazy lemon yellow with a decent sized white head with light retention. Earthy grapefruit and apricots with bits of pine and grass countered with a solid bready malt. Pretty nice.

Can from tfontana, thanks for the trade. Solid dark brown with faint garnet at the edges with a thin tan head that slowly dissipates. Light roast and caramel with plenty of resinous pine and bits of citrus. Nice brew.

Can pour from Tuckaway Tavern & Butchery. Appearance is opaque black with light sparkle, finger-width beige/light brown head with fair retention and tons of leggy lacing. Aroma is strong roasted malt with hint of chocolate, good amount of pine and citrus. Taste is strong pine, roasted malt, light chocolate, toffee and blueberry. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with silky smooth texture, soft carbonation, light rice spiciness and finish as taste. Overall, one of the best Black IPA's I've had. Nice complexity of flavor and within the mouthfeel.

Can pour from trade with AirForceHops--thanks, Chris! Appearance is opaque orange juice with nice sparkle at the edges of the glass, 1/2-finger white foamy head with fair retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is mix of strong herb over citrus. Taste is strong dank herb, melon and grape with grain backbone. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with thick, smooth texture, average carbonation, slight numbing of the tip of the tongue and lips, mild alcohol warmth and finish as taste with virtually no bitterness. Overall, not sure I've had this hop combination before but it produces an aroma and taste that are pretty unique. Very, very nice!

16 oz. can purchased at the brewery. The aroma is non descriptive fruit and pine resin. The texture does show some juice but it’s also really sweet then ends on pine. It is balanced between sweet and hoppy. Not sure why everyone in NH is so gaga for it?
