Oakshire Brewing O'Dark:30

Oakshire Brewing Company, Eugene, Oregon.
6.3%abv, 22oz bottle

They subtitle this beer "Cascadian Dark Ale Black IPA" and its nearly black color definitely matches that title. It is quite IPA-like, with a good hop foundation upon which the malt builds a balanced overall flavor.

It's a good beer. It's nothing all that special, but the novelty of the dark malt does make it a tad more interesting than your average IPA.
