The Rauch Is Strong With This One

DARK, TOASTY, & SMOKY
Two young Padawan brewers blended the best qualities from two German styles that have not been seen in a very long time, hoping that others would join the cause. They combined the darkness of Schwarzbier with the smoke of Rauchbier and made their brew strong enough to warm the coldest Hoth night.
Judge this not by its size, should you. While in a small package, it packs an Imperial punch. Smoky, toasty, and malty, this beverage is not for just any scruffy looking nerf herder. If a light lager is what you seek, this is not the beer you are looking for.
Are you ready to give yourself to the Dark Side?
Good. Good. Let the smoke flow through you.

TASTING NOTES
This beer is one of the most over-the-top beers in our catalogue. It’s dark and malty, full of beechwood smoke character, and packs a punch at 9.0%. Look a little deeper though, and you’ll find depth and character aplenty. The traditional toasty character of German malts is the backbone of this style-bending brew, using it as a canvas to paint with a complex combination of dark fruit and smoke. Finishing in a surprisingly mellow fashion, this brew is like our boy Lando – balancing both the light side and the dark side.
