Chernobog, the Black God, bringer of winter and night is our Czech Style Dark Lager. Hues of dark copper and deep garnet tints clash with the persistent frothy tan head. An aromatic symphony of rich malt sweetness, toasty bread, roasted nuts, dark fruit, caramel, coffee, chocolate, and hop spice. That same aromatic complexity comes elegantly through in the rich malt forward flavor. A creamy like texture of the body melds the labyrinth of those flavors together to form a well balanced, subtle hop forward, clean Czech Dark Lager.

5 oz. taster at Miskatonic, June 2018. Warm alcohol with a separate coffee smell. Deep dark brown with just a thin ring of foam around the edge. Taste is nice, just a little bit sweet, as an imperial brown instead of a stout: the difference is noticeable. Hints of cherry and rye spice. No “burn” of a rye whiskey, but a nice mellow note of brandy. Some vanilla and the slightest hint of oak. Hope to see this go to a few BA competitions.
