The night sky is alluring on its own. When you see the northern lights, it’s downright mesmerizing. That lively contrast is in Midnight Black Lager. You savor the roasted malt aroma and subtle caramel flavor of a dark beer – brightened by the crisp, casual finish of a lager. It’s always midnight somewhere.

Appearance: Very dark brown, good head.
Smell: Mild roasted malts.
Taste: Balanced to start, some mild sweetness with mild roastiness. Medium-light bodied. Light roasted malts in the finish.
Overall: Easy drinking dark lager, a little roasted malt action but not too much. Built for drinkability, not tons of flavor but a nice change-up.

From a 12 oz bottle into an imperial pint glass, the beer is very dark brown with a dark tan head.
The aroma is fresh bread and roasted malts.
The taste is solid. Lightly roasted malts, some coco, a bit of brown sugar and raisin.
The mouth is slightly hefty with some good mid-level carbonation.
The beer is not heavy at all and it is easy to have several. Would be super easy to pair with heartier fare.

Served in bottle. Very dark beer. Has a pleasant aromatic appeal. Nice caramel malt flavor. Carbonation is spot on and enhances the flavor. Overall, a fine dark lager. Will definitely purchase again

On a can in Wisconsin. Nice and smooth. I would definitely drink this again. Glad. To find this because it is difficult to find for sale locally.
