Bull City Philip’s Black IPA

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This past August we held a homebrew competition to select a winning beer with the promise of brewing a full scale commercial batch. Sixty six sample bottles later, the judges picked Phillip’s Black IPA as this year’s winning entry. We gathered the ingredients, and brewed the batch on our system. Truth be told Phillip gave us permission to substitute two of his hop varieties due to the hop market being sold out of his choices. We think he’ll be proud to taste this version. Very similar in style to his original recipe and one for the hop heads. The dark color comes from using a specialty malt called Black Prinz, which adds color but not a lot of roasty flavor. Expect a very hoppy, higher alcohol almost Double IPA, but dark in color. Showing citrus galore with bright floral hop aromas and a malty body that won’t quit. HOPS USED: Nugget, Zythos
