Just as the many Veterans of the Armed Forces, Hand Over Heart black lager is a dedicated to the attention to detail, integrity, passion and sacrifice that each military branch exemplifies. As part of the Black Ale Project we set out to brew a lager that everyone can raise in honor of veterans past, present and future. Sweet chocolate aroma erupts while a light roasted maltiness envelops your palette with hints of toffee.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to lager glass.
Appearance: pours dark brown and leaves more of a black color in the glass. Two and a half fingers of khaki foamy head dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: dark bread, toasted nuts, some sweet ash, earthy tones and some caramel malts
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to an earthy sweet blend with toasty vibes; finishes sweet earthy and a little bit of caramel
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, some smoothness but also some grainy tickling to the tongue
Overall: nice enough dark lager, maybe come back to.
