About the beer
Every now and then, something unexpected actually works. Black Swan walks the line between IPA intensity and dark malt complexity without tipping into chaos. Bright American hop character leads the way, backed by just enough roast to add depth without getting in the way. It’s a study in contrast that somehow holds together.
Brewing Notes
Built on a pale malt base with restrained use of dehusked dark malts to provide color and smooth roast without harshness. Aggressively hopped with American varieties for citrus and pine character. Fermented clean to keep the focus on hops and balance.
