Black IPA, also known as Cascadian Dark Ale, combines elements of a stout and an IPA. The elegant label that adorns Greenwich Black IPA hints at the British and American influences within. It contains a blend of seven dark malts and both English and American hops producing a sophisticated beer. There’s a nutty, sweet and fruity aroma with blackberries, strawberries and grapefruit. Coffee and pine also make a background appearance. The dark malts create a caramel and toast taste with the American hops providing light citrus notes of grapefruit. The opening oily mouthfeel changes to become quite grainy and leaves a bitter dark chocolate finish. Some may appreciate more hop presence, but the joy of this beer is in its subtlety.
All Meantime Brewing Company beers are suitable for vegans except their Chocolate Porter which contains milk.
This beer is suitable for vegans at the time of writing (September 2015).
