VICTORIA, BC – Vancouver Island Brewery has announced details of a latest release in their series of limited edition beers packaged in 650 ml bomber bottles.
Absolute Darkness India Dark Ale is a 6.5% abv dark and hoppy ale that is described as follows:
Just like the eerie sensation that local cavers feel when going “lights out” in one of the Island’s 1,000+ recorded caves, our IDA is a deep descent into your taste buds. Dark in colour with a prominent Northwest hop aroma, the body is balanced with semi-sweet malt flavours of roasted coffee and chocolate. So go on and take a sip into absolute darkness.
Absolute Darkness IDA will be released in a limited edition glow-in-the-dark bottle, and will be available starting March 9th.
