At Fairhope Brewing yesterday having a flight of five. Have been wanting to visit this brewery for a long time. Very popular place in this very quaint community. Has the deepest red color as only a few photons pass through. Very faint citrus aroma of orange peel. These totally full 5 oz glasses make it hard to evaluate. Take a sip and Pow. Flavor hits fast and hard. Heavy malt, grapefruit pith, semi-sweet that sprints into an intensely heavy roasted and very bitter finish. Black IPA's can be strong and overpowering and this accomplished it. It's not my kind of beer but I believed they made a good black IPA.
