Had on tap at the brewery. Pours deep brown in color with a rich tan foam. Thick lacing starts immediately. Good retention. Aroma is citrus with chocolate and light roastiness. A soft sweetness and maltiness is there. Taste is a balance of citrus - orange sweetness, mellowed by roast and chocolate. Finished pretty smooth with hints of chocolate, sweetness, and roast. Soft bitterness and maltiness linger. Light end of medium body. Medium carbonation. Really juicy with a late drying. Been a long time since I have partakes a black ipa. This was a good representation. The orange juiciness is appreciated balanced by the dark flavors and aromas. I would have this beer again. Enjoy!
