One more from AVBC before we move on, Nettied Madge Black IPA. This one means well dressed prostitute, my favorite kind.
I've been really into Black IPAs lately. It's just such a match made in heaven: nice dark roastyness and big hops. For me, that is pretty much exactly what I want in a beer. well, quite often anyway.
This one is nice and dark black with good creamy beige head. On the nose, this beer has a good amount of coffee, and subtle hints of burnt sugar and vanilla. The last two are way back in there, and then occasionally you get a nice little tiny whiff. Totally cool.
The body is not overly heavy, I'd say medium-light, which makes it nice and easy drinking. but it's big on roasty character and big on hops. The hop bitterness is really nice and clean. Nice beer.
7 out of 10.
