This black lager is one of Black Raven’s seasonal lagers. Brewed with traditional Czech grown and malted barley for an authentic European malt flavor. Domestic and European hops provide a balanced hop bitterness and flavor. This lager has all the darkness of a stout but without the intense coffee flavors associated with stout ales. Released annually.

Malts: Pilsner, Carafa
Hops: Mt Hood, CZ Saaz

Draft pour. This beer is pretty bitter overall. Not an attractive aroma. Some decent roasted flavor, but its short. Not really for me.

Bomber from Malt and Vine. ABV 5.9%. Pours very dark brown with a creamy beige/tan head. Aroma is a little chocolate over smooth burnt malt. About med body. Flavor is smooth, very smooth, burnt malt with chocolate. Can’t pin down a particular hop characteristic - if pressed I’d choose grass - but the finish is dry, mildly astringent, and bitter. Drinks very well. It is a nice break from all the ISs out there.
