Kooinda Black IPA



Kooinda's beers to this point have sat on a knife's edge. Very good, but still only on the verge of excellence.

Given I'd had a pretty good run with IPA's lately, it would take a doozy of a beer to rate amongst the others.

The Kooinda Black IPA is popping with malt and berry like flavours before a slab of hop driven bitterness is laid down, locking your tongue in a peruvian necktie. The carbonation is extremely soft, almost non existant, allowing for the flavours to really take to the stage from start to finish.

Definately not a session beer, but on it's own very solid.

I wasn't able to write this review while drinking it, so it's slightly less in depth than some of the others.


8/10
