evilawyerAm now drinking a pint of Linden Street Brewing Company's (Oakland down by the Port, California) Burning Oak Black Lager. It is to go "yum".
A subtle malt flavor in the nose and the mouth and a hint of sweetness on first taste. It builds up to a bitter cacao flavor that's surprisingly refreshing for such a dark beer. And speaking of color, this stuff is truly black. You can't see through it.
Very, very delicious.
And I'm having this particular pint at Creek Monkey Tap House in Martinez, CA, but now I know where to go when I'm trying to kill an hour in Oakland.
