Kostritzer Schwarzbier Lager

Kostritzer-Schwarzbier-Lager
Style: Schwarzbier, or German Black Lager The Köstritzer brewery is located in Bad Köstritz, which is close to Gera in Thuringia. The brewery was founded in 1543 and it is one of the oldest producers of Schwarzbier (black lager) in Germany. One of the most famous drinkers of Köstritzer Schwarzbier was Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who sustained himself on black beer from Köstritz when he was unable to eat during a period of illness. Schwarzbier means “black beer” in German. It is a medium-bodied, malt-accented dark brew, very opaque and deep-sepia in color, with a chewy texture and a firm, creamy, long-lasting head. In spite of its dark color, it comes across as a soft and elegant brew that is rich, mild, and surprisingly balanced. It never tastes harsh, toasty or acrid. The beer is often referred to as a Schwarzpils, a “black Pils,” but, unlike a blond Pils, which can be assertively bitter, the hop bitterness in Schwarzbier is always gentle and subdued. In a glass, Schwarzbier looks much like a British dark ale, but looks can be deceiving. Schwarzbier, unlike a British ale, has a clean lager taste that leaves next to no perception of fruitiness on the palate. Instead, Schwarzbier produces very mild, almost bittersweet, notes of chocolate, coffee, and vanilla. Like most traditional German lagers, Schwarzbier has a malty middle, but the sweetness is never cloying or overpowering. The beer is moderately to well attenuated and the finish tends to be dry. Its alcohol level by volume is in the range of 4.5 to 5%, rarely higher. To accentuate the Schwarzbier’s dark elegance and appealing head, always serve it in a tall, fluted or tulip-shaped glass. 4.5%—5% ABV. Germany.

It’s not often that a great summer swell coincides with a full moon, but when they collide, nature affords us a rare opportunity to paddle out long after everyone has called it a day. These moments are a solitary pursuit with empty lineups, but those who carve graceful lines under a full moon understand how things can be dark lonely and rewarding at the same time. So next time you paddle in from an overcrowded beach break, remember that nothing tastes better than a cold beer after a session. We suggest a glass of this smooth roasty black lager for contemplating empty lineups and waves that go on for days. Most likely, you’ll long for epic summer swells under moon lit sessions opening the doors to isolation and empty secret spots of an age trying to pass us by. Note: Formerly Midnight Sessions Lager.

Brooklyn Winter Lager is our answer to the heavy ales and stouts that emerge in wintertime. Though dark in color with a sturdy presence, our Schwarzbier-inspired lager layers notes of chocolate, roasted barley, and dark bread into a 5.6% ABV frame that finishes surprisingly light and pleasantly dry. Winter means different things depending where you live, but Brooklyn Winter Lager is ready for any chill.

Grand-Teton-5-O’clock-Shadow
We have taken the traditional Schwarzbier, intended to be a "session beer" with typically moderate alcohol, and almost doubled its strength to 7.6% alcohol by volume. We brewed our version with a fine balance of crystal and roasted malts and spiced it with noble hops. We fermented 5 O’Clock Shadow at cold temperatures with a select German lager yeast and cold-conditioned it for over four months to create a velvety smooth, easy-drinking springtime brew.

Trösten translating to “comfort beer”, a dark lager with rich notes of chestnut and toast. Carafa and smoked malts create rich flavors lingering on a surprisingly light, smooth finish. Brewed for the cold winter nights in Vermont, but can be enjoyed on any occasion.

If you grew up in the US, there's a solid chance you once thought lagers were pale-yellow, flavorless, over-carbonated, marketing-driven, adjunct-riddled shame poured into icy-frosted glassware. We've all been there. But now we're here. Behold: Schwarzbier, the blackest of lagers. This is the one you pull out when you have a fucking point to make about the diversity of lagers. Magnetron is malty, medium-bodied, and gently hopped. The magic of lagering makes this brew rich, but mild and well-balanced.

Black Bear has moderate malt flavors that finish clean and sweet, and are balanced out nicely with just a hint of bitterness. It is overall dark, but very pleasantly sweet with no harshness that most would expect from a dark beer.

33-Acres-Darkness-Schwarzbier
When embers crackle into charred sultry puffs, a mystical serenity draws near. Hinterland’s stilling hush nestles quietly while being calmly at rest. Belly and lungs fill then clear with soothing huffs as drumming thumps begin revealing extraordinary realms. Entering fantastic possibilities and potentials, worlds within worlds manifest... The enchanting Schwarzbier hails from Germany's historic middle ages. Progressing upon the hallowed dark essentials, this bier swiftly joined the flagship ranks, flowing especially well. Conceived by cozy Pilsner mixed with slow-fired Cara Vienna, Black Prinz and Caramel Munich 40 malts, 33 Acres of Darkness has evolved into a supernatural lager. Summoning hoppiness through nicely biting Perle and Magnum hops, gently toasted sugars evoke rich cocoa and subtle coffee blitzes. These tidy undertones ebb sips to settings, while easy-going textures socially invite further quenchings. Durstig?

Just like the story of Aschenputtel (Cinderella), Midnight Strikes is an unexpected favorite, even if you’ve never had a Schwarzbier. Schwarzbier originated from southern Thuringen and northern Franconia in Germany and is a variant of the Munich Dunkel style. Sometimes referred to as a “black pilsner” this beer is rarely that dark and doesn’t have strong roasted or porter-like flavors. Midnight Strikes keeps with German tradition and is balanced throughout combining subtle, smooth roast malt flavors with hints of caramel. Don’t let looks deceive, this flavorful beer is easy to drink and may just win your heart.

We like this beer for lots of reasons. It’s a traditional old world beer style and it’s a lager, so it takes time to make but it also has roasted & toasted malt flavors. And while it’s light to medium in body, it’s black with a quick, crisp finish. Add in six imported malts and two European hop varieties, you’ll taste why this true to style DB favorite is an award winner! Gold Medal 2014 GABF. Gold World Beer Cup 2016

This Black Ale is low in gravity, clean, crisp, and flavor-filled; giving off a bread-like aroma. This beer proves that deep colors do not signify rich beers and our Black Ale is deceptively light on the tongue. A wise man once said, "You underestimate the power of the Dark Side! Give yourself to the Dark Side. It is the only way you can save your friends. Yes, your thoughts betray you" and he was right.

The name Xingu reminiscent of the Amazon rain forest and - not without justification. The specialty beer is named after a river in the Amazon region and also the ingredient cassava indicates this origin. A rough recipe of black, soft beer can already be found in a document from 1557. Some 430 years later, a journalist, a hotel owner and a lawyer came up with the idea to revive this beer recipe again. In the meantime, the brewed from corn and cassava Xingu Black Beer a covered with awards, internationally successful specialty beer . Brazil and the United States so far form the main sales regions of Xingu Black Beer, which has recently been exported to Australia and England. Now, the strong-tasting, yet light is dark beer available in Germany. Beer: Color deep black with reddish-brown sheen, foam fine pores and light brown, stick to the glass, smell very strong, reminiscent of corn, roasted flavors, savory and round. The taste is a wealth of flavors that unfold sequentially. First, roasted aromas and tangy freshness, then a beautifully bound gentle bitter note, and decaying again a pleasant, gentle roasting flavor without bitterness.

Jacks-Abby-Cascadian-Schwartzbier
This black lager combines a big roasted malt character with plentiful additions of aromatic hops. Magnum, Cascade, Columbus, Centennial and Cluster in the kettle, hopback and dry hop additions add a piney, resinous, light citrusy flavor and aroma. A bitter finish contrasts the full malty body.
