cmp8254 - November 28, 2013Nice hoppy/bitter beer. Although called an IPA, taste more like a bitter porter or stout. Should not have the racer 5 label to avoid confusing this with the racer 5 IPA.
zomerhouse - November 13, 2013 Pours dark and smooth like a stout. Nose like a strong stout. Nice roasted malt up front with a hoppy finish. Not as citrusy sweet as regular Racer 5, but a solid example of a black IPA. More like a lighter stout, though.
dlitolff - August 25, 2013Very good beer with roasted taste, smooth finish. More like a light stout. Only thing that separates this one from the best black IPAs is lack of a strong hop bite in the end. Still very good. Bottle, Aug 2013.
hammer - July 5, 2013Good malt up front with a hoppy finish. Not as citrusy sweet as the Racer 5 but an excellent example of a black ipa.
Spiker14 - June 12, 2013Bear Republic once again puts out a solid beer. Just what I expected from a black IPA. Give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
Higgsyboy - April 30, 2013Pours a nice dark colour, clean head, but a bit light/thin given how it pours and it's 75IBU. More resemblant of an ale than an IPA
