What the brewers say

“A smooth and clean-finishing black lager.”

What our panel thought

“Subtle aroma of light toast. Slight malt bitterness up front, leading into sweet dark bread; creamy and soft, with a light, agreeable chocolate character. Light toffee, herbal hop. That late hop character is kind of fun. Creative, interesting, nice flavor. Easy to drink.”

What our editors thought

“Bold malt in the aroma, with a dialed-back woodiness that mitigates any sweetness. Light herbal zing in the sip, with just a bit of roasted malt behind it.”
