Bottle. Nice pine aroma, bit of cream too. Light roastiness too. Taste is great. Quite subtle. Chocolate, light coffee, then citrus fruitiness. Bit funky maybe. Creamy, very nice. Subdued in its deliciousness. Further down hop hit has gone, just lovely maltiness.

Draught @ BBB. Pours hazy black with a big frothy mocha head that leaves lots of sticky lacing and trace in the glass while dissipating. Smell is malty and roasty with roasted malts, burnt caramel, rye bread, grapefruit juice, mango, cocoa powder, moist grass, pine needles, moist soil, sweet liquorice candy and lemon peal. Taste is bitter, herbal and earthy. Mouthfeel is heavy astringent and medium bodied. Finish is bitter with roasted malts, grapefruit juice, dark roast coffee, bitter chocolate, moist grass, pine needles, moist soil and lemon peal. Bit rough...

Bottle sample @ Leuven Beer Innovation 2015, shared with the RB Belgian crew. Brune un peu claire, col beige. Arôme aux notes maltées alternant grillé, caramel, pointe choco et un accompagnement houblonné fort réussi tirant bonne mesure des houblons C, retrouve les notes agrumes, résineux avec un léger tropical. Palais est malté, pâle, léger grillé et fine touche chocolatée, rétro houblonné agrumes et surtout agréable léger profil résineux. Passe bien restant très légère, complexe dans son usage des houblons, mais dont les propriétés de pas mal se recoupent.

English BIPA with stable, off-white, light beige head and very dark bronze colour, approaching black but still transparent. Lovely ’dank’ aroma of pine resin and pine needles, grapefruit, orange peel, thyme, wormwood, coffee, bitter chocolate and caramel; fruity onset but ’clean’, dried plums and candied figs, nice spicy hints over a smooth, caramelly and eventually restrainedly roasted bitter malt basis, paving the way for a wonderfully aromatic, ethereal, citrussy and piny hop bitter finish, long and satisfying. Very good black IPA.

Due to artificial coloured illumination, appearance not estimable, arbitrary 4/5 ’Dark’ C-hops, but also grapey , like Nelson Sauvin. Bit of caramel or toffee to sniff. Dry,a shes, dried hops, dried dark bread. Light body, but quite some slickness. Not so special, but bring it on anyway!

Thanks for sharing! Sampled 330 ml. bottle @ Leuven Innovation Beer Festival. Dark brown, little mocha head. Nose is herbal, sweet, milk chocolate, chunky cacao, tad watery, not much hops,… Taste is dull plaster yeast, herbal, cacao sweet, basic chocolate milk, dull, yeasty, herbal & fizzy. Okay but boring.
