Dark Indian Ale with the coffee flavor of the dark malts in beautiful combination with the citrus aroma of the Cascade hops. Thick beige head. Robust but still easy to drink.

Copenhagen 17/4 2023. 50 cl bottle from Meny, Borups Allé, Frb. F. Small Batch's usual can design with a black circle with the silhouette of a hop flower surrounded by a green background.
Pours opaque dark brown with a small off-white head. Stable. Settles as 0,3 cm thick layer of foam covering the surface of the beer. Substantial lacing.
Aroma is medium intense with a sweet odor of roasted malts mingling with a citric scent. Earthy notes. Dark roasted malts, coffee grounds, humid soil and toffee. Grapefruit and citrus.
Light carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, soft, lightly tingling texture.
Flavor is medium intense with a medium strong malty sweetness followed and balanced by a medium strong citric bitterness. Aftertaste is bitter. A bit searing. Lingers for a while, Finish is rather dry.
Well-balanced Black IPA.
