Cas Cerveser Sant Antoni i el Dimoni
Sant Antoni i el Dimoni is a definitive Black IPA that expertly balances dark malt complexity with assertive hop character. The inclusion of rye adds a distinctive peppery spice that weaves through a profile of piney resin and bright citrus. While the appearance is midnight black, the roast remains restrained, offering subtle notes of bitter chocolate and toasted bread rather than burnt ash. This allows the American hop profile to lead, supported by a clean fermentation and a drying finish. It captures the essential contrast of the style: the visual weight of a porter with the vibrant, bitter agility of a classic India Pale Ale.
Appearance. Opaque black (35-40 SRM) with a persistent, dense tan head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.
Aroma. High hop intensity featuring resinous pine and grapefruit citrus. Low but present malt character of dark chocolate and toasted crusts, complemented by a subtle spicy rye note. Clean fermentation profile.
Taste. Initial hop-forward impression of citrus zest and resin, followed by a restrained chocolate and coffee malt foundation. The rye provides a spicy, grainy depth. High bitterness that is firm but not harsh, leading to a dry, clean finish with a lingering hoppy and lightly roasted aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture likely enhanced by the rye. Moderate carbonation with very light alcohol warmth.
