Black Lager

Picture
 

Our Black Lager, or Schwarzbier in its native German, is easy to love. It's a crisp, clean, cold-fermented lager but darkly coloured with a discreet, fragrant roasty essence. Perfumey noble hops. Grainy and just a little toasty, with hints of coffee and chocolate. Light body and carbonation. Smooth and delicious, finishing with a nice dry snap. Black Lager clocks in at just 4.4% alcohol so you don't have to clock out. Go on, order a round for your friends. You'll be surprised how many friends you suddenly have.
