It's more about technique really.

Go with an all pale malt grain bill, or throw a couple of percent of a very pale crystal in it to hit around 1.050.

Colour wise you need to hit black, but without a trace of roastiness. You can use the de-husked Carafa Special III for this, or Roast Barley/black malt which you cold steep . . .. say around a KG steeped in 2.5L of cold water for 24 hours . . . strain off he liquid and add it to the boiler.

Hops American, big and bold . . .To around 55-60IBU, deriving 50% of the bitterness from the late addition.

Stick with Cascade or Aurora . . . Citra . . .Columbus the really big 'C' hops and lots off them.

I did do a Cascadian last year but as it was for 12BBL the recipe doesn't really apply :D . . . An d I under bittered it
 
Not really on-topic. But i get really really annoyed when breweries names it "BLACK India PALE ale". Makes no sense what so ever.
 
dont know if you can read m8 i was asking for a recipy like people do here :electric: :wha:

You gone soft Aleman you usually chastise people for the use of the term Black IPA :whistle: :whistle:
