28th April 2012: half pint, cask. This is a Black IPA (if there is such a thing?).

Dark body, black as black can be in fact: good full cream coloured head which produced some strong, thick lacing.

The nose was a mix of coffee and semi-citrusy hops: neither really strong, but just about findable.

The taste was a similar mix with the coffee coming out the strongest of the flavours with hints of smoke pushing the hop content out somewhat, although there is a hop bitterness within the black coffee feel of the beer.
