Draught at Blind Lady. Pretty tasty Black IPA. Pours pretty black with a nice off-white head and some lacing. BIG hoppy aroma that included a touch of roasted malt. Big full mouthfeel and some syrupy notes of sticky hop resin and caramel malt. Pretty filling but still light enough not to weigh you down. Went well with pizza.
