As the daylight hours grow shorter the beer releases lean toward the darker side, but sometimes you still want a crips & clean lager! Enter the Schwarzbier, a classic German style built much like a Helles or Dunkel with the addition of highly roasted and debittered black malt. A dependable yeast strain and extended layering in the fermenter are crucial for the production of a smooth and easy drinking beer. The noble hops Tettnang and Saaz add the necessary bitterness and spicy & floral hop aromas for balance! You can't read a book through it, so what... don't be afraid of the dark!
