Living after midnight, the heavy roast profile of our Double Black IPA is accented by an explosion of hops that rock to the dawn. Never before have tones of coffee, vanilla, wood and citrus mix with herbal notes made a more complex creature. Loaded with Chinook, Sorachi Ace, Nugget, and Cascade Hops. It’s bigger, bolder, and never better.

In honor of our veterans, we’re partnering with the Black Ale Project for the release of Never Better Double Black IPA. A portion of the proceeds from every can sold will benefit the American Military Partner Association to support LGBTQ service members and veterans.

I prefer more of a lighter IPA bit the can art totally sold me.
Big fan of Revival Brewery.
This was a heavy bitter sip.
After the initial sup it went to a sweet caramel but then faded back to bitter on the after taste.
All in all a decent beer if you like them dark.
I prefer light but I did enjoy it.

Modest head production with pour retention.

Tons of roast, balanced against citrus and piney hops, caramel, toffee, licorice, and caraway seeds.

Flavor follows with a fairly straightforward - if potent - black IPA recipe: licorice, roast, burnt toast, grapefruit, resin. There's nothing particular unique to the profile, but it's expertly executed, and nails the balance: it's an IPA first, with roasted malt second.

Very lively and aggressive on the palate. Moderate-to-heavy bitterness, with an almost puckering finish.
