Aug 31, 2009 Bottle shared with the guys at the Inglorious Emergency Tasting. Dark brown pour with reddish highlights and massive light tan head. Smells of piney citrus nose carries to flavor, but with a slightly metallic twinge. Overly carbonated. Cool beer with a cool name. But not my favorite.

Aug 28, 2009 22 oz bomber.
Dark brown with a huge light tan creamy head.
Aroma to me was very subdued and unimpressive some maltyiness, and the barest hint of pine.
Taste weird, this is my first Black IPA and certainlly its almost a balance between the malts a..toasty,toffeeish and the hopping..mainlly piney.
Takes some getting used to.
Nice mouthfeel on this one.
Overall a very different IPA.
Like I said my first Black IPA, need to try some more.

Aug 25, 2009 This was a peasant surprise. A lot going here with a bold hop fruitiness, a dry, resiny undercurrent and nice deep dark malt. Good stuff, thanks max.

Aug 23, 2009 Red black with a thick foamy beige head. Aromas of caramel, spicy hop and some citrus. Tastes of toasted malt, pine, resin, some chocolate. Ends with an earthy bitter finish that lingers just a tad too long.

Aug 16, 2009 Bottle. This was more like half stout and half IPA. Black pour with generous tan head. Hoppy aroma with slight dark malt notes. Flavor is slight roasted and smoky malt, and hoppy finish. Different not you run of the mill IPA
