Uinta Dubhe Imperial Black IPA - 12oz

Uinta Dubhe Imperial Black IPA - 12oz

Pours a rich deep brownish black with a hefty and lush khaki head. Fairly hop forward, yet balanced and not abrasive, piney and resinous, malts are roasted, but not burnt smelling, light chocolate and coffee coming from the malts. Lively carbonation with a body leaning toward viscous almost. Patent malt forward, chocolate, licorice, dark skinned nuts, wrapped in bitter piney hops. Finish has some citrus trying to come through, but the licorice and bitter cocoa from the patent malt keep it in check and just holds the bitter finish.
