In the late 1700’s, Newark was the first capital of Upper Canada, now known as Ontario.
Obsidian, is our rendition of a black lager, or Schwartzbier. Crisp and easy drinking with roasted notes and coffee flavours. Don’t be afraid of the dark! Cheers!

This black lager poured a cloudy, deep amber colour with an soapy, off white head. Soft can, so I’m thinking it may be a little off. Nice lacing. Scents include wine, ripe fruit, caramel, light smoke and brown sugar. First swig was almost flat with not bad flavour. Flavours of light smoke, roasted malt, light coffee, tea and a tad of cocoa. Finish is lightly sweet with roasted malt flavours lingering.
