    Amazing what just 8 minutes in an ice-bath will do for a 12oz beer!

    Mark the calendar I have found a black IPA I really like! 21 Amendment Back in Black!

    [​IMG] [​IMG]


    If you know me then you know I am not fond of the black IPA. I find the style elusive to me personally. I think that the roasted and heavier stout like qualities of the malts clash with the citrusy and IPA like qualities and that chocolate, while it does go with orange, does not go very well with grapefruit. This beer has changed my mind about the style.

    I really liked this one and I think 21st amendment has shown us what is possible with this style. They have struck a balance between what tastes good and what is just for show. Some may call the flavors weak or diluted but I think that one has to account for the idea that a lighter palate does not require as much effort to understand it. The balance in this beer is apparent as the malts come forward but not heavily. The malt is as light as it could possibly be and still be roasted almost black. Light and drinks lightly I love it!

    (I'm going. . . I'm going)

    A beautiful sunny day. I'm trying an Arbor Brewing Bliss He few even ( that's what this spellcheck does to a wheat beer!)

    Agreed. In fact, I just finished my last one from last year and if you ask me they are drinking better now than fresh. The coffee is still there but has faded a little allowing the chocolate to take center stage. Wonderful!
