It’s been a while since I’ve had a Weird Beard beer, and with this Black IPA it has been worth the wait.
Heavy with black cherry jam, Sign Of The Southern Cross is a thick and sticky Black IPA that’s full of forest fruits and a deep, rich and sticky treacle tart, molasses and heather honey malt body.
There are ice cream cones and Belgian waffles as well as rum and raisin chocolate and black coffee goodness, all of which leads you towards a comfortable Porter before the hops come in with thick cut orange marmalade and nettle tea, forest fruit jelly, lemon rind and woody rolling tobacco, that gives the beer a sharp bitter hoppy kick in its long dry cacao finish.
