-

Dead & Alive is 2nd Shift’s take on the Black IPA—a style that brings together dark, roasted malt flavors with assertive hops. Expect a dark pour with layers of roasted malt, cocoa and coffee, contrasted by citrusy, piney hop character and a firm bitterness. It’s a nice choice for IPA drinkers looking for something darker and maltier without moving all the way into stout territory.
