Dark Winter is an uplifting and refreshing take on an IPA variation that in our opinion should never have fallen off the cool list. This is an unapologetically Pacific Northwest IPA with a pine, wood and citrus nose. The Simcoe, Amarillo and Citra hops deliver both the aroma and flavor you expect in an excellent IPA. The dark color however is not simply for show. We used de-husked roasted malt so that there is a hint of chocolate and coffee in the aroma, a definite dose in the finish, and then as you savor the aftertaste, just enough to enhance the hop experience. Dark Winter is a 8.2% ABV IPA that is not a stout yet still isn’t afraid of the dark. Grab one on tap this Friday!
