Heavy Seas Black Cannon


















































Heavy Seas Beer (Clipper City?)
Heavy Seas Black Cannon
Baltimore, Maryland
1/24/2011, on tap at The Judge's Bench, 7.25 abv

Smell

The aroma is roasty with a little chocolate and citrus.

Appearance

Very dark brown with some ruby highlights around the edges and a light tan head.

Taste

One wouldn't think that roasted malt with chocolate and coffee flavors wouldn't work well with bitter, hoppy grapefruit flavors, but it does.

My favorite Black IPA to date, although I've only had one other.

Comments

Heavy Seas (formerly Clipper City) also makes Loose Cannon. While Black is nice, Loose is my favorite cannon.
