Black XPA (2022)

Aether's Black XPA is a true team favourite. We’ve thrown rules out the window and balanced a smooth Dark Ale with a supremely juicy XPA. Intensely hop-forward with aromas of citrus, pear, melon and passionfruit, the juiciness is perfectly wrapped together with chocolatey biscuit flavours from the malt.

Pouring dark black with a copper tint around the edges, this marvel is only lightly bittered and stays smooth to the finish.

Dive into the depths of this Black XPA; it's not just a drink, it's a symphony for the senses!
