This is a very good BLACK IPA, but there are better ones on the market.
Served in a standard pint glass. Pours pitch balck with a nice carmel color head. Great aroma of citrus hops to the nose. Taste reminds me alot of Drifter and Brrr with more of a malt backbone.
For a beer for the masses this is a great beer, and thank you Widmer for being the first to get this style to market for everyone to try. I know it is not the first but, it is the first mast market BIPA!
Enjoyed the beer alot, would have another but not a session beer.

A- not quite true to its name. a very deep brown but not black. Creamy cappuccino head lasts a long time.
S- understated but interesting. Subtle earthy hops.
T-an interesting blend of roasted malt and pine hops.
M- very smooth. No carbonation noted.
O- an interesting IPA mixed with a dark beer.
