Black Spruce Brewing Company Aroma Dome
What the brewers say
“Citra- and El Dorado–driven IPA.”
What our panel thought
“Engaging aroma of dank weed, Juicy Fruit Bubble Gum, melon, papaya, and clove. The flavor has similar notes, combined with grapefruit and light, faintly sweet malt. The finish is melon and grapefruit, a refreshing harmony that would work nicely on a hot day. The bitterness is present, but restrained, leaving a softer finish.”
What our editors thought
“Peppery arugula, honeydew melon, cucumber, and yuzu on the nose. The flavor knocks the pure fruit notes down with a thin layer of dirt and earth.”
