Winter is dwindling fast so I gotta get my dark beer fix in before everyone transitions into the lighter varieties.
Schwarzbier, literally meaning black beer, is a german variety lager that typically is characterized by those malty flavors and additives of other ales. The only difference is the body is much lighter and it comes off smooth and crisp at the end.
Upland's Schwarz is the epitome of this style of beer. It looks pretty scary with it's jet black color and large head, but when you dive into it it tastes about as clean as any other lighter beer option. The smell is very strong with hints of chocolate and coffee, but take a sip and it's much more subtle, actually tasting like a classic lager. Coming off clean makes a fantastic beer for malt enthusiasts and people just looking to try something new. This is a good one.
