AAB 040: The Quiet Resilience of Black IPA
Manage episode 402259360 series 3373950
Once a darling of the craft beer scene, Black IPAs or Cascadian dark ales, can be difficult to find today.
History shows that Greg Noonan brewed Blackwatch IPA at the Vermont Pub and Brewery in Burlington, VT in the 1990’s and the style would become part of the “IPAs of many colors movement” in the early 2010s. That time also saw interest in making and consuming white IPA and red IPAs. The success of Black IPA was short-lived and it fell to relative obscurity in the 2020’s. While most breweries now are brewing hazy or west coast IPAs, some are giving the black IPA a chance. On this episode, we talk to two breweries still brewing this style and their reasons why, as well as brewing approach, history, and thoughts about this almost forgotten style.
