The Kissmeyer Icons series is meant as a retrospective salute to those beers previously launched under the Kissmeyer Beer brand that are the most iconic. The beers in the series, all originally launched between 2010 and 2016, represent a broad variety of beer styles with the common denominator that they all exhibit a highly personal and unique ‘twist’ on the base styles. The twists are different from beer to beer, but the overall characteristic is that the Icon beers are smooth, accessible and harmonious. Simply because that is how I like my beer! The ‘Kissmeyer Into the Black’ is built upon the original ‘Kissmeyer Black IPA’ – a personal interpretation of this popular ’crossover style’, by holding back on the black malts and by using only de-husked versions of them, in order to create a less aggressive and burnt malt counterbalance to the hoppyness and bitterness of the IPA. The name? Thanks to Neill Young and Poul Mikkelsen – both ‘dinosaurs’ in the cool way!

Appearance

Black colour, rich, lasting pale cream-coloured head.

Aroma

Intensely hoppy, with soft roasted malt notes .

Taste

Fruity and floral hop flavour, mildly roasted and markedly, but smoothly bitter taste. A long bitter, hoppy and roasty aftertaste.

Mouth feel

Full body, but dry for style.

Overall

The ’Kissmeyer Into the Black’ is a black IPA with more focus on ‘IPA’ than ‘Black’. Lots of hop character, a distinct, but smooth bitterness and mild roast malt character.

Brand history

Anders Kissmeyer belongs to the absolute elite of the world's brewers. In 2011, he was voted the best active brewer in the world, and leading Danish beer writers have called him the 3rd most significant brewer in Danish brewery history.The KISSMEYER series should be a new landmark in the forest of Craft Beers. The quality and experience of Craft Beer fluctuate tremendously, and, as a consumer, it can be a little difficult to orient yourself. Of course, it's always fun to try something new, but in the midst of all this brewery creativity, we see lighthouses popping up. These lighthouses represent a high quality that one can count on, while exploring new types of beer driven by great curiosity. KISSMEYER is such a lighthouse.To ensure that KISSMEYER will always be interesting and relevant, we have developed a number of product concepts that we will be launching continuously in the years to come.All product concepts originate from Anders Kissmeyer's personal interests and drive. Nature, experiences and relevant beer situations and, not least, all of the good brewer colleagues.
