A Black Lager that is surprisingly light in body, with hints of chocolate.

This one pours a dark brownish color, with a small head, and lots of lacing.

This smells like dark breadiness, chocolate milk, and roast.

This is definitely a touch sweeter than the best versions of this style, but it's still a tasty little lager. It's pretty crisp, with a nice roast and doughy bready character. There's no real hop character than I can discern.

This is light bodied, clean, and slightly creamy, with a great drinkability to it.

I wasn't sure how this brewery would handle this sort of thing. It's certainly not a world class dark lager, but it's still a solid enough take on the style.
