Much lighter schwarzbier than I’m used to, with a front offering a mix of mild chocolate-caramel notes, lemon, and pumpernickel. Grows yeasty on the back end, leading to a grassy sweetness and a mild bitter floral finish. Lingering bread in the fade. Good, but not my preferred style of black lager.
