Sure like the Darth Vader Black IPA

I would say Back in Black was one of my favorites for a long time until last night. I had Uinta Duhbe at the Pittsburgh Beerfest and it is now my new favorite black IPA

 

[smarek82]

Uinta is one of my friend's favorite breweries because he is vegan. However I've never had any of their products.

A few of my fav's are Maine Beer Co. Weez and Hill Farmstead Jimmy. Love this style.

Stone Self Righteous so far. Brewed a tweaked clone this past weekend.

Yup, that one is also a goodie!

Hands down Firestone Walker Wookey Jack... Liked it so much I had to brew the clone version on this forum... So delicious

Hands down Firestone Walker Wookey Jack...

THIS...



Stone Self-Righteous is a good second...

 

[BreezyBrew]

I liked Hop in the Dark better than both the FW and the Stone. All are excellent beers. The Deschutes is more complex malt bill and probably most stout like. Guess it's more of a CDA rather than black IPA.

 

[krenshaw]

Back in Black got me started liking hoppy beers.. before that i wouldn't drink a regular IPA.. how it teases your eyes is probably what did it for me

 

[notixx]

the Dubhe is soooo good.

 

[beernbourbon]

Stone's Self righteous was my fav, even got the brewmaster to send me the recipe, and he re worked it for a 5 gallon batch. Been itching to brew it.... couple weeks maybe.
Then I came across Black Rajah..... yeah, ummm....wow......:rockin:

 

[drainbamage]

Sublimely Self-Righteous, with Dubhe not far behind.

I didn't know this was a thing, but now I want some!

In Mitch Steele's IPA book, he gives the recipes for a number of excellent black IPAs. Heck yeah!

 

[mxchap]

Black Racer from Bear Republic.
The only Black IPA I can enjoy a full pint of personally

yeah, the Dubhe is pretty fine too....

Yup, came out like a month or so ago...... bartender knows I like the darker beers gave me a taste and I fell in love with it right there. Huge fan of Citra anyway, so that worked...now, to get the recipe
and I'll have to try the White Rajah too ....supposedly comparable IPA

 

[mkslug]

Another vote for Hop in the Dark.

 

[Kirkwooder]

Saranac's Moon shadow is pretty good!:rockin:

Can you post the recipe? I don't see much firestone out here on the east coast. An occasional bottle here and there in specialty shops.

Mayday Brewing Evil Octopus is the best I have had. But now I need to try some of the others listed here.

 

[Weezy]

Wookie Jack is crack

I also like Duck-Rabbit Hoppy Bunny American Black Ale

That's what got me started liking hoppy beers to, so it's still one I go back to every once and awhile.

But I also love these:

Uinta Duhbe

Stone Self Righteous

Firestone Walker Wookey Jacks

Black Rajah.

I think it was Champps in West Chester (or some other restaurant) that had it on their beer list, but they were out of it.

Where did you get it?

This is the one I just brewed and it's awesome.

 

[MrNickVT]

Not that you can get it outside of Vermont but Hill Farmstead S&S #2 and Lawsons Finest Liquids Black Toast IPA is incredible. Wookey is next in line! The probably Otter Creek Black IPA

I had the hoppy bunny once before. Definitely a big fan of it.

I can't get hop in the dark, but I love Deschutes.
Am drinking a Green Flash Hop Odyssey Black IPA right now that may be better than the Stone SSR...
It's limited, grab one if you can!

They one listed above by mtnagel is the thread us fellow wooky jack lovers have been using to brew the clone... it's such a phenomenal recipe that even if you screw it up on brew day it will still turn out amazing

 

[JonM]

It's a Wisconsin-only brewery, but New Glarus's Black Top is awesome.

 

[DirtyDawg10]

My two favorites so far are:
Stone Sublimely Self-Righteous Ale and Sierra Nevada Beer Camp #94 Belgian-Style Black IPA. You can't go wrong with either one.
