SCHWARZBIER WITH ROASTED COFFEE
A schwarzbier is a dark German lager that balances roasted yet smooth malt flavours with moderate hop bitterness. The lighter body, dryness, and lack of a harsh, burnt, or heavy aftertaste help make this beer quite drinkable.
We teamed up with our friends at Red Raccoon Coffee to bring you this schwarzbier brewed with a blend of Brazilian and Mexican coffee beans that were roasted at Red Raccoon Coffee. The result is a balanced, enticing coffee aroma that enhances everything we love about a good Schwarzbier.
