Black IPA 7.5 º 40 IBU

Brewski

Night Knocker is a robust Black IPA that expertly balances the dark allure of a porter with the vibrant intensity of an American IPA. The sensory journey begins with a deep, dark brown hue and a tan, persistent head. On the nose, powerful American hops deliver a high-intensity bouquet of resinous pine and citrus, layered over subtle hints of coffee and light chocolate. The palate follows suit, offering a firm bitterness that cuts through the smooth, medium-bodied malt base. It finishes dry with a lingering piney hop character and a gentle, clean roastiness that avoids any harsh or burnt notes.

Appearance. Dark brown to opaque black (SRM 35-40). Pours with a moderate, persistent tan head that exhibits good retention and fine lacing.

Aroma. High intensity hop aroma featuring prominent resinous pine and citrus peel. Low to moderate malt presence provides supportive notes of milk chocolate and toasted bread with a whisper of cold-brew coffee. Clean fermentation profile with very low esters.

Taste. Initial punch of citrus and resinous hop flavors. Medium-low malt sweetness provides restrained chocolate and light roast, avoiding burnt or ashy qualities. Firm, high bitterness balances the malt, leading to a dry and clean finish with a lingering piney aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Moderate carbonation provides a crisp lift on the palate, accompanied by a light, well-integrated alcohol warmth.
