Commercial Description:
This traditional lager is medium in body with a deep roasted character. Its dark color and rich malty flavor come from specially roasted caramel and chocolate malts. This brew is lightly hopped with Noble Bavarian hops for a soft spiciness and a smooth clean finish. Cheers!

Pours almost black. Roasty malt aroma. Very nicely balanced. Malty body. Very nice, especially for the price.

Bottle. pours dark brown with small head that last short. Aroma of lightly roasted malts. Flavor was surprisingly sweet with a slight burnt coffee note at the end.

Near black pour, off white head. Roast malt aroma. Fairly mild flavors, chocolate/caramel roasted malts. Nothing overpowering, well balanced and drinkable. Pick it over bud or whatever other crap is at the supermarket.

Subtle flavor of chocolate and toffee, average carbonation, decent body, perhaps a bit thin. A devent brew, but nothing to write home about.

Nice aroma and pours a fine head of foam. Fruity flavor that doesn’t leave an aftertaste.
