Bashah (w/ Stone Brewing Co)
Black Belgian Double IPA.
Brewed when our good friends from Stone visited in 2009. Black As Sin, Hoppy As Hell - no other beer name has quite hit the nail so squarely on the head. Dark roasted malt makes a beautiful canvas for the savage hop bitterness, pine needles and orange zest.
