What Our Editors Thought
“Classic West Coast IPA notes in the nose—orange blossom, lime, and forest with a curious touch of stroop waffle. Restrained flavor pushes tropical fruit forward with a spritely bitter verve.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Chocolate bomb! Boozy and dark. Fireside sipper, but sans the sweet balance. Bitter dark chocolate of the malts in both aroma and flavor. With a clean finish, woody hops come through in the aftertaste.”
What the Brewers Say
“West Coast–style black India pale ale with Citra, Amarillo, Columbus hops.”
