John. Johnny Boy. Johnny with his ring of fire who always dressed in black. For the legendary rockabilly crooner we doubled down on black. One part nice Johnny, one part bad-ass Cash. It's a beer about railroads and rebellion, about adultery and judgement day. A Double Black IPA with a big middle finger whose arms are too short to box with god. Sip slowly, to unleash the beast inside.

Pours a deep, dark mahogany coloration with an amber hue when help to the light and a medium, fluffy head. Smells of quite roasted malt, coffee and citrus notes, with hints of earthy/herbal hops as well. Taste is a great balance of quite roasted malt and citrus hops, with notes of coffee, grapefruit and just a hint of licorice, pine and earthy/herbal hops also coming through. Finishes with a medium bitterness and some roasted malt, coffee and grapefruit lingering in the aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation.

I just love me a good Black IPA and this certainly qualifies, such a shame that the style has become so rare these days. It really has that balance of roasted malt and bitter, citrus hops down to a T, with some coffee and lighter notes of licorice and herbal, resinous hops adding some depth and complexity to this, making for a very enjoyable drinking experience.
