Beer Profile

Schwarzbier

This German-style Schwarzbier pours a deep, nearly black hue with a rich malt aroma featuring roasty notes and subtle caramel sweetness. On the palate, it offers a smooth, soft malt character layered with hints of roasted barley, dark chocolate, and raisin. The moderate 7% ABV supports a balanced body that finishes clean and restrained, without heavy bitterness. Brewed with traditional German malts, noble hops, and yeast, this non-adjunct dark ale exemplifies classic European craftsmanship with a refined, mellow profile suited for cooler seasons.
