Description
⚔️ EVIL WIZARD CYBORG BOSS | 6.5% | BLACK IPA
Collaboration with the (one-man empire) Rhys at Evil Mega Corp.
This beer cuts harder than a badass robot samurai boss who’s here to get things back on schedule and will force-choke every hop in the building to make it happen.
Starting with a malt body that’s on point: local certified sustainable Pilsner malt for a clean backbone, a hit of Munich for subtle caramel depth, and roasted wheat to bring that volcanic-planet boardroom energy. Next, we unleash an imperial parade of hops, spearheaded by some local Margaret River Flinders on the hot side for bitterness and a spicy edge. Simcoe Dynaboost cranks the pine and resin, followed by Riwaka, Cryo Simcoe, Motueka, and a late-ferment Amplifire Motueka Hop Oil blast to ensure the bitterness lingers longer than a Reddit thread about midichlorians.
Pouring dark-saber black with a stormtrooper off-white head, this Black IPA delivers lime, spice, berry, and pine resin aromatics before an assertive mid-palate bitterness slices through with laser precision. A subtle malt body with hints of caramel and roast keeps things balanced while the bitterness lingers long and dry, like a voice in your head saying, “grab another pint… these are not the droids you’re after.”
May your May the 4th be dark and hoppy. And remember, resistance is never futile… unless it’s to this beer.
