Hoppy Feet 1.5 Double Black IPA

Hoppy Feet 1.5 Double Black IPA, Clown Shoes Beer, Ipswich, MA
(Black IPA, Rated 99)
You know what they say about big feet, right?  Big beer! This beauty pours a dark, mocha brown with a tan head. Fantastic aromas of dark roasted malts, dark fruit, licorice, and hops. Full of flavor! Chocolate, licorice, dark fruit, roasted malts, a little spice, pine and citrus hops...lots of hops. Well balanced and not overpowering though. Smooth on the palate. I expected a stronger alcohol presence at 10% abv. Just a little booze burn at the finish. This is one fantastic black IPA...one of my favorite styles!
