DESCRIPTION

Schwarzbier is a new fresh wort kit that allows homebrewers to create a German-style dark lager. The term “Schwarzbier” literally means “black beer” in German, and the kit is designed to produce a brew that is true to this style.

Despite its deep, dark colour, which can range from very dark brown to almost black, a Schwarzbier is known for being surprisingly light-bodied and crisp, setting it apart from heavier stouts and porters. The kit is based on a traditional recipe that balances smooth, roasted malt flavours with a clean, dry finish. You can expect subtle notes of dark chocolate and coffee from the roasted malts, which are complemented by a low to moderate hop bitterness.

Ferment this one with either Wyeast 2206, Bluestone Freiburg or SafLager W-34/70.
