This one pours a dark brown-ish color, with a small white head, and lots of lacing.

This smells like funky and chalky brett, milk chocolate, herbal hops, and a sort of stale aroma I can’t place my finger on.

A brett black IPA is an interesting, unique, and ultimately confusing choice here. There’s just too many weird things going on, as the bretty funk is kind of chalky and medicinal and clashes with the creamy bitterness of the black IPA. Strangebird is usually pretty good at nailing weirder takes, but this didn’t quite work for me.

This is kind of creamy, but clashing and not super drinkable.

I like the general sense of anything goes here, but it didn’t quite work.
