The color is nice!
They're playing my song.
Victoria's bad a** because she likes to go
hard.
Yes!
Alright, I got this.
It's a rye porter.
Victoria: With blueberries.
Manu: Yeah, it's not your average porter.
I tried it with Victoria and I was like wtf?
are you sure this is a porter?
Because it was fruity.
And the guy showed me the bottle and there
are blueberries in it!
I don't know if you can see, but it has a
reddish color.
It's the strangest thing.
Usually they pair rye porters with coffee,
which is a beer they also had,
but this one had blueberries!
Okay.
The end.
You know? It's starting to taste like fruit rollups.
Hyunjin: It's me riding in a wheelchair!
Manu: This woman got too fucked up!
Hello everyone!
I'm back with
another brew.
It's Coastal Eddie Black IPA,
I don't know what that means,
but it's from Basqueland Brewing Project.
If you don't know,
the Basque County is a little
autonomous community in the corners
of northern Spain and southwestern France.
I live not far from the Basque Country,
so I like to get Basque beers because
the environment there is kind of like California.
It makes me miss home.
This one is 7.8% ABV.
It doesn't say anything about what it's supposed
to taste like,
but it looks cool!
It has a surfer on it.
Alright!
Imma try it.
I'm always so surprised when I actually taste
a really good beer
because it's hard to find good beers,
at least in France, because it's
France
they're known for wine, not beer
(This beer isn't French though).
Why is it called a Black IPA?
Is it the color?
Maybe I should pour it in a glass.
Okay!
So I got this old Nutella jar.
Lets see the color.
Aha!
So it is the color.
But what makes it black?
I don't really know.
Somebody tell me.
I need to Google it.
Oh sh*t!
It's black.
I've never seen an IPA this dark before.
Oh my god!
Look at that.
So that explains that.
Black IPA.
It taste...
I've had a bourbon-aged beer before...
or a beer aged in bourbon...barrels?
That's what it tastes like.
It's good!
It's kind of caramel-y.
I'm gonna say that about every beer.
It's not bitter.
I think that's pretty typical of European
IPA's.
They're not as "in your face" as American
IPA's.
I've also heard that critique from a British
brewery.
It tastes like coffee.
There's bitterness in the back of my tongue.
As you can see, it's easy to drink.
I can't use that anymore because every beer
is easy to drink for me.
It's a big step up from the previous beers
I've had in France (this beer is from Spain).
It's good.
Drink it!
It's a solid beer.
It's not spectacular, but I would definitely
buy it again.
