Psychopomp
Black Lager
Crisp / Reviving / Malt
Death be thirsty work - especially for the Psychopomp, endlessly guiding lost souls to the Afterlife. Forgoing usual sacrificial offerings, this one has a taste for beer with lots of body, and so to pay His fee, a party of dead brewers have hijacked our brewery to make a beer to satisfy His thirst. We dare you to brave Dead Fellows Haunted Brewhouse this October, and if you bump into a dead brewer - to avoid becoming the body in their brew - be sure to offer them a glass of this crisp, Black Lager, who's malty aroma will distract them from YOU!

BREWER’S NOTES
This black Lager (or schwarzbier) balances the use of roasted malts while delivering the clean character of a lager. Psychopomp pours black in colour and offers a complex grain build that blends aromas of dark chocolate, toast and molasses. Notes of roasted malt, espresso and cocoa flavours balance a medium body and a crisp, clean lager finish.
