southern tier iniquity black ale
and now for "the antithesis of unearthly"
from southern tier, its the imperial iniquity black ale
pours up thick and black with a compact creamy head
malty, malty, malty
definitely some hops
definitely different than an ipa
a taste bridget is happy to acquire!
and i like it too
much like (and yet totally not even similar at all to) the snakebite i made with ipa and worried that it would be too clashy, this is a pairing that could be disastrous, but instead ends up complimentary and supportive
its like therapy in a glass!
hops and de-bittered chocolatey malts are a match made in heaven!
9%
21 degrees plato
2 row pale malt, debittered black malt
kettle hops: chinook, cascade
hop back: willamette
dry hops: cascade, centennial
serve chilled in a southern tier tulip glass
from the bottle: "The hexagram talisman has been used around the world for centuries to invoke magic and good luck. The six-point star is also the customary symbol of brewing, representing the essential pure ingredients of the craft: water, hops, grain, malt, yeast, and of course, the brewer. Wishes of good fortune often collaborate with the brewer's creativity to yield dramatic results. We carefully chose the name for this imperial IBA, Iniquity - a word opposing goodness. Why? This beer is contrary to what one may expect from an IPA; this is an ale as black as night. It is the antithesis of Unearthly. Some may consider it an immoral act to blacken an ale. We suggest they don't rely on conventional standards. Allow the darkness to consume you. Cheers!"
