Festoon Black is a bold and flavorful black lager that's a twist on our classic Helles Lager. Its dark, almost ebony hue is a prelude to the complex, malty taste that follows. Notes of chocolate, coffee and roasted malt dance across the tongue, balanced with a mild hop bitterness. Its smooth finish lingers pleasantly, leaving you wanting more. With a medium body, Festoon Black is perfect for those who crave a full-flavored beer without the heaviness of a stout.

Third of a pint on cask at the Doncaster Brewery Tap.
Thin beige head. Clear almost black pour. Light bitterness. Easy drinking.

Almost black beer. Lasting beige head. Black berry flavour light charcoal dryness. Very fruity though. Drinkable.
