A very pleasant surprise... and I wish I could have it again.
The label of the bottle I Had says "Black IPA."
Not so. The review that calls this a stout is on point.
L: very dark with a full head.
S: has the burnt malt smell, but sugar and fruit is in there.
T: The stout-ness comes through more clearly than the nose.
F: I thought smooth, like a stout.
My only suggestion if they come out with this is to call it a stout. I missed a lot of the great taste in this bottle by thinking IPA and having Holiday tamales with it. If there is a next time, I'll have Kuro Oni by itself or with stout-friendly foods.

Midnight black Belgium ale that really grows on you. It has excellent balance. The significant effervescence help keep it light and palatable despite its formidable taste. Tastes like brown sugar coated burnt figs, coffee, and roast chestnuts, then finishes with a cleansing hop bitterness. I wasn't sold on this one at first, but the more I sit with it the better I like it (and faster it disappears!).

11.2 ounce bottle served cold in glass beer challis.
A) Black as night with puffy cappuccino head that lasts throughout the pour. Cloudy, full of suspended bubbles barely noticeable except when held to the light.
S) Sweet Belgian candy sugar, baked apple pie, cooked dark fruit, raisons, fresh sour dough.
T) Tastes wonderful. Stout like, smooth and complex. Burnt caramel, espresso, sweet beer port.
M) Abundant bottle conditioned carbonation makes this ale fizzy and light despite its stout-like density
O) Great example of the Belgian stout category. I really enjoyed this beer but suspect will be difficult to find another....
