22oz bottle from Binny’s Plainfield. Pours a black body with a finger-width, creamy, light brown head that dissipates slowly and leaves a nice lacing. Aroma is big citruses with some florals and a dull pine as well as a moderate roast, some chocolate, and a bit of a licorice note. Flavor is similar. Lots of citruses with some dull pines and florals, earth, dry roasts, and a light chocolate sweetness. Finishes with a long bitterness that completely dries with a bunch of citruses and just a touch of sweetness. Fairly lengthy aftertaste following a medium-light body and a soft, moderate carbonation. Overall, not a bad Black IPA, but lacking a lot of depth. Lots of dull citruses, dry roasts, and a lighter chocolate. Was hoping for more.

Near black, almost black color. White head that clings to tye side of the glass. Rich deep roasted malts balanced with dry hops. Caramel sweetness in the finish. Lovely beer.

Draught at OT, sthlm 120529. Black beer with a beige head. Hoppy aroma with some choclate notes and a bit metallic notes too. Hoppy, fruity flavour with some metallic notes.

Very interesting. Pours an extremely dark brown with a moderate head. Subtle nose to it, with just some hints of hoppiness. Good level of hops in the taste that’s balanced out so as not to be harsh. Great find.

This is a terrific brew to cap off the day. Strong malt flavor with a mild taste of bitter hops. Decently balanced and very smooth

Bottle. Pours a dark brown with a thick tan head. Aroma of citrus and grassy hops. Predominantly hoppy notes in the aroma with just a hint of roasted malt at the end of your sniff. Flavor is light roast up front, lots of malt, some coffee notes, and bitter resiny hops in the finish. Nice black IPA, very smooth and drinkable. Light but solid palate. I enjoyed it overall. 7/4/7/4/15 [3.7/5]

pours dark brown with thick tan head and lots of lacing.appearance reminds me off a good root beer actually.aroma is a combination of licorice and pine.taste wasnt quite what i was expecting.thought i was going to get a big hop punch but it just wasnt there.flavor is pine,anise and has a chalky characteristic in its finish.mouthfeel was a little flat and with the amount of head that i seen was expecting it to be more lively.appearance and aroma were nice but its lacking flavor.

Bottle shared by bhensonb. Pours reddish brown with a decent beige head and a citrus and treacle aroma. There is a treacle and anise flavor with a bit of chocolate and a strong floral citrus finish. It’s a nice combination of tastes.

Bomber from Wine & Cheese in Clayton, MO. Pours dark brown with ruddy/gold glints. Aroma is sort of sassafras. Med body. Flavor is sort of herbal over light, very light, chocolate malt. Quite interesting. A little floral in the finish.

Pours dark ruby red with a medium light tan head. Smells of coffee and hints of cocoa. Taste is lightly bitter, hints of coffee and dry chocolate. Medium-bodied with a lightly chalky texture and mild mouth-carbonation, New Holland Black Hatter finishes dry and much like a weak stout.
