Trout Hop is brewed with Idaho 2-Row Brewers’ Malt and German specialty malts and has a deep, rich color and roasted finish without the thick and malty body that often accompanies dark beers. It is kettle hopped and dry hopped with Pacific Northwest hops, resulting in bold and intense bitterness and piney, zesty aroma. The full body and dry finish create a refreshing autumn ale, perfect for any crisp afternoon or cool evening. The spicy hopsof this ale complement rich, flavorful foods. Chocolate mole enchiladas, Indian and Thai curries, and barbeque ribs will accompany nicely.

This style seems to be hit or miss and this beer is a miss in my book. Blackish pour with plenty of tan head. Although the piney hops are evident, they take a backseat to the burnt, smokey malt. Not very IPA-like.

A nice hoppy porter from Grand Teton, lets see.. . Pours a deep brown, medium head, great sticky lacing .. . quite hoppy, with notes of tar and roast.. . kinda muddled and rushed, like alot of black ipas .. . happy to have tried it though! .. . my cat went from cappuccino to espresso in only 7 short years, amazing!

750ml bottle, dated 11/16/2010. Pours a dark brown with a big fluffy / creamy light tan head that retains well and laces the glass.
The aroma is a nice combination of sweet roasted chocolate malts and piney, slightly citric, hops. This is what a black IPA should smell like.
The flavor is sweet chocolate malts and fruit with some roast (light coffee) and piney fruity hops in the finish that add a medium bitterness that lingers in the aftertaste. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with low carbonation and is a little watery.
Overall, this is probably the best Black IPA I've had to date. I haven't been a big fan of them so far, but this is well balanced with a nice combination of sweet chocolate, roast, citric fruits and piney hops. -

Pours dark brownish black in a snifter. Nice light brown head. Aroma is dark roasted malts, chocolatey and a little hops. Taste is pretty big, powerful and gave me a nice buzz only after one. Borderline too rich for my taste.

supposedly 145 ibus, this is a dark, rich, monster of a beer that ended up being quite enjoyable, but again - overpriced. thick, resinous, with bright hop complexity and enough dark roasty malt to balance but not overpower. just a good beer all around.
