A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight – the third release in our 1620 Pilgrimage Series celebrates longer nights and cooler days with Night Watch Black IPA.

Brewed with Comet, Galaxy, and Southern Cross hops, Night Watch bursts with fresh, piney hop aroma and flavor but pours a smooth, inky black hue that’s as dark as the north woods night sky.

An easy pour reveals a fat finger of tan rocky foam with long retention and drooping blotches of lace. Opaque and deep dark brown, almost black.

Mild smell of herbal, piney and spicy hops with roasted barley and toasted dark bread. Some caramel malt and baked pitted fruits appear.

Semi-dry with strong bitterness, rich malt profile keeps the balance. The bitterness involves white pepper, baking spice and a bitter astringency from roasted malts/barley. Items from the smell are bigger in the taste. The finish is long as well as the very bitter and dry aftertaste.

Full body, Stout-like richness with lasting carbonation. Very bitter yet balanced (somewhat) and smooth.
