This traditional lager is medium in body with a deep roasted character. Its dark color and rich malty flavor come from specially roasted caramel and chocolate malts. This brew is lightly hopped with Noble Bavarian hops for a soft spiciness and a smooth clean finish. Cheers!

12 ounce bottle. Clear, mahogany brown color. Small creamy beige head. Clings to the glass. Nice, tannic, roasted malt aroma hints at chocolate and burnt wood. Flavor is roasted malt, caramel and cedar. Subtle hints of coffee and brown sugar, as well. Smooth and flavorful.

Light roast, a lot of toffee. Black pour with big mocha head. Light bitter finish. Lots of sweetness in here. Don't love the malt profile either. Bottle.

Light caramel aroma. Roasted malt in the flavor, combined with caramel and a touch of chocolate. Thinnish, but with a pleasant malt character. A Bavarian dark that has had plastic surgery. The result is pleasant, but a bit artificial.

Bottle from the mixed 12 pack from Market Basket. Mostly clear deep brown with a frothy off white head that persists. Rich bready toasty malt with bits of chocolate and caramel. Faint floral hops. Not bad for entry level.
