Born
in Toronto, Ontario, Evil Conscience Black IPA contains 6.1% alcohol
and tips the scales at a hearty 65 IBUs. My pint was black as night,
opaque, and covered with a foam of creamy head. I found Evil Conscience
to be light on aroma, but big on flavour. It's nose had some piney
bitterness, along with some roasty malt notes; both in restrained
measure. In terms of taste, though, this beer let its hair down a bit
more. There was a slice of espresso bitterness tangled up with evergreen
hops. Roasted malt elements simmered underneath the surface as did a
faint hint of anise. A cask ale, Evil Conscience also displayed a very
smooth, creamy mouthfeel.
Toronto's cask ale
kings, Granite, delivered a real winner with Evil Conscience Black IPA.
Packed with flavour, velvety, and lovely--I highly recommend it.
Rating: 9.0 out of 10.
