What Our Editors Thought
“Very light roast with a sweet floral edge. Flavor is light with only hints of darker malt character, and a firm herbal bitterness carries through.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Floral and lightly perfume-like hop notes dance atop the dark roast, chocolate, and coffee-like malt aromatics. The chocolate notes really emerge in the flavor creating a nice bittersweet element to balance the dark roasted flavors and tie in the floral hop aspects. A bitter coffee-like roast note lingers into the finish and flirts with coming across heavy-handed.”
What the Brewers Say
“American oak foeder-aged Czech dark lager.”
