Pours jet black with about a finger of light tan head. Smells complex- hops, molasses, toast, toffee, roasty. Tastes like a more intense version of the smell, realllyyy good! Nice medium body that finishes dry.

Good piney hops. Too bitter for my taste.

Very strong and good taste. A little too much of a hint of Carmel for me, but a nice bitter IPA after taste

Very hoppy and bitter yet sweet. Very unique taste that takes a specific pallet to drink, not for me.

Black ipa. Pours dark, but taste a hoppy ipa. Great beer.

I'm a hop head, but this is bit much. Very lemony, overpowering. This is the opposite of "subtle". It's trying toooo hard.
