Description
Black Acre Brewing Co. is a small batch brewery located in Irvington, Indiana. The idea for Black Acre initially was conceived in 2010 due to our love of brewing, great beer, and the beer community at large. We created Black Acre with the goal of contributing delicious and unique beers to the community in which we live.

We hand craft our ales using a custom fabricated 3 barrel electric brewing system. Distribution is limited through our in house tap room sales, where both pints and growlers are available.

Visit the Black Acre Garden, Irvington's newest outdoor drinking space located at 5529 Bonna Avenue. The family and dog friendly Garden features a variety of Black Acre beers on tap with plenty of seating on the new deck, and guests invited to carry or order in food.

Tallboy can from Varsity. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a slight rose tint and finger of foam that dissipates quickly. Light lambic-like kriek notes on the nose with a touch of wheat & gooseberry. Lightly tart, w/ salt, wood and slight lingering cherry note. Nice, but would like a bit more cherry to come through.

Draft. Amber body with a frothy off-white head. Aroma of citrus, toasted grain, floral hops and light pine. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly sweet and lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body, velvety texture, moderate carbonation. Floral hops pop in the finish along with some rye twang. Malty thick in the mouth, much more than I want in an IPA. But the hop flavor shines.
