Widmer Brothers Pitch Black IPA

Almost impossible to see through, dark, dark brown, almost black, with some tan highlights. Pours a three finger mocha head that slowly subsides. Cafe au lait flavor at first, covering up some mysterious citrus. Piney hops evident, but balanced nicely by the coffeeness. Dark chocolate starts to come out about a third of the way through the bottle. Despite the 65 IBU's, the bitterness is not overwhelming, but puts a pleasant bite into the finish. Think dry porter crossed with a standard IPA and you'll get an idea of what's happening here. Great for autumn which hopefully will be here soon.
