The beer: Black Lager
Brewed by: Devil's Backbone Brewing Company, Roseland, Virginia
Description (from the website): "Derived from the recipes of medieval Germanic brewers, our Black
Lager embodies a millennium of refinement. Schwarzbier (literally: black
beer) originates from eastern Germany and is a window into premodern
brewing. Medieval brewers browned barley over open flames; today we get
the characteristically subtle roasted flavor by using the finest toasted
malts. This sophisticated little gem is fermented with lager yeast, and
finishes quick and dry."
Would I buy it again?: Well, considering I'm pretty sure this isn't the first time I've had this beer, I'm going to go ahead and say yes, I'll probably get this again. I like black lagers quite a bit, but they're not particularly common. This one isn't quite as good as Sam Adams' black lager, but it's still pretty good.
