Heady, Roasted, Resin, Coffee
Just enough roasted character for a dark beer without going full in on being a porter or stout, great use of American NW hops which really elevates this brew and brings forth a solid drinkability. Hints of caramel, chicory, & unsweetened chocolate in the middle feign a stout like presence. Big and bold with both malt and hop characters pushing for dominance, perhaps that is what a Black IPA is.

Poured from a brown 12 oz. bottle. Has a black color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of hops, some roasted malts. Taste is hoppy, bitter, some roasted malts, a touch of coffee. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a pretty good beer.

This is one of my favorite black ipa's. It's smooth and balanced. I could drink this with a steak, a slice of pizza, or with some cake.
