An India Pale Ale in all things but colour. Dark as Keji is at once hoppy, fresh and bright, and dark, dark, dark. A hop-forward IPA with a gorgeous roasty body, fruity middle notes, and then backed up by bracing bitterness in the finish.

Dark black with a strong head, cap and lacing. Mild roasted chocolate nose. Rich malt body, some coffee notes and a large, hoppy finish.

Dark reddish brown - Aroma of coffee and toast - flavour adds a licorace note at the end. Not sure why a black “IPA”

I like the idea of this beer -- Keji is a special place for me -- but the execution left me disappointed. It tastes and smells like the sugars aren't fully fermented.
