Black Lion Lager craft beer is made from two types of barley malt, three types of hops and water. The beer is not pasteurized, does not contain concentrates, is made from premium raw materials, that is why it has a lively taste. A liquid may form on the base, so it is best to shake it before consumption.

9/7/2026. Bottle shared by SHIG, cheers! Clear bright pour with a big head. Aroma is sweet, grainy, biscuit, malty, pastry dough, touch citrusy and flowery. Quite sweet taste with mild bitterness. Light body, average carbonation. It’s okay.

Pour is a clear gold with a large white head. Aroma is fresh crushed grain and a slight wet paper bag but that is fine with me. Flavor is a chewy malt with some hop oils and some florals on the back end. If you gave me this and said it was a Hellas from Germany I would have believed you.

Actually a proper Helles! Love seeing Neil Young on the sign. The playlist was opera and classical, very pretty.

Sometimes I like just hitting a Total Wine and grabbing random things. Deep yet clear golden and a sudsy white head. Nose is grassy and bread. Tastes of dough, gras, lemon, hint of minerals. Chewy palate.

450ml bottle from Total Wine. Pours a crystal clear gold color with a white head and good retention. A few spots of lacing. Basic Euro lager aroma with a little sulfur. Good bready lager flavor with less sulfur notes than the aroma. Medium-light body. Medium carbonation. Not bitter. Better than I expected.
