This is a dark lager with more than a hint of chocolate. It's not particularly thick. It pours out a beautiful black color. The smell is a toasty chocolate effervescence as is that taste.

Solid brown with a full creamy beige head, good carbonation, and solid lace sheets. Cocoa powder chocolate malt aroma and flavor with a light roastiness all around. Medium bodiedwith a dry cocoa powder finish.

A nice Dunkel/Schwarzbier hybrid albeit a bit light on flavor for a Schwarzbier.

Note: This review was based on a growler from the Centreville, VA location. 5% ABV per the chalkboard at the brewpub.

($6.00 / Growler fill)
