Side pull at the source. Hits the spot for a dark lager. A bit of char. Most drinkable beer here today. Well malted without being too sweet. A style I like.

On tap at Strangebird Beer in Rochester, NY.

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

This smells like roasted malt and chocolate.

This is solid, with a nice balance of lightly sweet flavors and crisp roasty bitterness. It’s slightly herbal and tastes really creamy and smooth.

This is medium bodied, crisp, clean, and super drinkable.

This paired excellently with the World Cup opener. It’s quite tasty.
