Neon Snowsuit is a deceptively light bodied lager despite its deep black color and soft brown lace. The creamy mouthfeel is enhanced by notable dark chocolate and espresso flavors from heavily roasted malts. A brief cocoa bitterness finishes crisp and clean.

12 ounce bottle from Tadych's Iron Mountain, 7/2/21. Black, large frothy dark brown head, good retention. Aroma of roast, coffee, coffee grounds, covfefe. Some chocolate and faint fruits in there too. Taste is roast, nuts, sunflower seeds, cherry, coffee. Moderate bitterness, well balanced. Nice beer.

12 oz bottle. Pours black with a light tan head. Faint burnt peanut buttery aroma. Light, clean roasty, earthy, nutty flavor with a slight hint of dark chocoloate. This is a pretty well-done version of what it is.

12 ounce bottle into lager glass, bottled on 10/3/2013. Pours nearly opaque dark brown color with a small dense tan head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty lacing clings down the glass, with some moderate streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of dark chocolate, cocoa, roasted malt, coffee, toast, dark bread, light char, light pear/apple, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/roasted malt notes with light-moderate yeast ester presence; with good strength. Taste of big dark chocolate, cocoa, roasted malt, coffee, toast, dark bread, light char, light pear/apple, and yeast earthiness. Slight roasted bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of dark chocolate, roasted malt, coffee, light char, toast, dark bread, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Damn nice balance, robustness, and complexity of dark/roasted malt flavors with light-moderate yeast esters; with zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium carbonation and body; with a lightly creamy, smooth, and moderately chalky mouthfeel that is good. Alcohol is very well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is a damn nice schwarzbier! All around nice robustness, balance, and complexity of flavors; and very smooth to drink. A very enjoyable offering.

Bottle. Deep opaque brown-black body, thin tan head. Nose of chocolate powder and toast, delicate, with a woody bite. Body of chocolate and chocolate liqueur, toasty, with some dark fruit notes and a hint of licorice. Very nice.
