Red Truck: Midnight Run Dark Lager Review Review
Well-balanced dark lager with plenty of roasted malt, chocolate, and caramel notes.
Pours a medium brown. Good initial head, but quickly dissipated. Carbonation is still evident held up to a light; lingers on the back of the tongue.
Roasted malt, chocolate, hints of biscuit and caramel. Coffee is most prominent, notes of caramel, and citrus from the hops.
