Malty dark aroma prevails; not quite chocolate, but chocolate milk, perhaps? The flavor is balanced with just a touch of sourness from the black malt. This beer finishes with a creamy back and refreshing tinge of Co2.
O'Dell Brewing Co, Mountain Standard, Double Black India Pale Ale
From the brewer:
ABV: 9.5%
IBU: 55
As the Colorado hop growers prove they can produce world class hops, we as a Colorado Craft Brewer want to showcase what our state can offer, not only with our hand crafted beers, but also with the ingredients used in creating them. Mountain Standard, Double Black IPA, features the homegrown hops our Brewers helped pick from farms along Colorado’s western slope. MST pours committingly dark with a light tan head and a slightly roasted hoppy nose. An ephemeral bitterness, the result of combining roasted malts with an assertive American hop profile, contributes to MST’s act of balance and harmony. As the season’s darkness sets in, why shouldn’t your beer become darker too?
