UPDATED: JUL 11, 2022 Bottle at BBT 7/2022. Med-thin body, medium carbonation. Quite high bitterness, combination of hops and dark malts in it. The dark malts themselves contribute only light chocolate to flavour, not more. Light sweetness. Kinda a bit of orange-chocolate candy presence. And besides that moderately citrusy in general. Pretty easy drinking despite being rather broad and deep in flavour. Quite good.

UPDATED: JUL 11, 2022 BBT 07/2022. Dark brown color with medium beige head. Aroma of dark malt, orange zest. Taste dark malt with orange peel, coriander, pepper, moderate hoppy bitterness. Very good.

UPDATED: JUL 11, 2022 Bottle at BBT 07/2022. Malty aroma and taste, roastyness, orange zest, spicy notes, medium to high bitter. Medium body, malty roasty spicy bitter finish. Ok.

UPDATED: DEC 24, 2020 Weird beer - not really a black IPA, but black pepper ale suits it I guess. Coffee, roast, some chocolate. Weird but quite nice.

UPDATED: OCT 29, 2020 Sold as “black pepper ale”. Not a super clean bitterness that’s not so wonderfully balanced by a top notch crisp roasty character, the peppery is subtle but not substitute for a good roast. Elev bergamo airport

Medium sweet flavour, lots of restrained cocoa character, nips of black pepper, background brown bread and roast, mellow earthy bitterness. Medium. I died, slightly oily, with fine carbonation. Finishes with mellow warmth, more inklings of black pepper, sweet cocoa, brown bread, subdued roast. Quite a good, well rounded and interesting CDA.
