Widmer Brothers Pitch Black IPA

The Beer Stats:
  • Beer Name: Pitch Black IPA
  • Brewery: Widmer Brothers Brewing (Oregon)
  • Style: Black IPA
  • ABV: 6.5%
  • IBU: 65
  • Pour Color: Black on pour letting little to no light through




      On pour this one had a nice fluffy head that even as you drink holds on the top. It's one of the first beer that had a low head all the way down. A roasted sweet caramel scent first thing you smell. Mixed with a pine and citrus hop blend. The cascade hops come out as the first star of this beer. As it splashed up on me it was all I tasted at first. A nice sweet roasted taste to the malts balance it well. This one is a really good Black IPA.
      Some real dark beers this week but still a real nice hop presence. For some reason that chocolate/coffee flavor works so well with the bitter hops. This is another balanced beer that a hop head or dark beer lover can get into.  I'd recommend your face get one today!
