Introducing Nightshade Black IPA; a true oddity in the world of IPA's. Classic flavors of grapefruit and pine are achieved with the use of Citra, Centennial and Chinook hops. It's appropriately brewed with midnight wheat and rye malt for balanced flavors and that beautiful, dark, au naturel color. Some say freak, we say unique!

Can poured into a Mountain Rambler Brewery pint glass

A: Pours properly dark, verging on black, with a frothy beige head that settles to a firm layer and leaves plenty of nice lacing.

S: Roasty, bittersweet chocolate, coffee, citrus, a little tropical and stone fruit, resinous pine, peppery spice, and a touch of burnt sugar.

T: Roasty char and a hint of smoke immediately followed by resinous pine and peppery spice, then citrus, grapefruit, lemon, and tangerine, a little underlying tropical and stone fruit, mango, peach, apricot, and hints of blackberry, some coffee and bittersweet chocolate that comes out more as it warms, and a touch of burnt sugar.

M: Medium body, moderately lively carbonation, a touch creamy on the finish.

O: Just kept getting better as my glass emptied. Nice balance and complexity. Beers like this are why the world needs more Black IPAs.
