Commercial Description:
Eastside Dark The rich, coffee-like aroma and flavor ot this find Dark Bavarian style lager beer is derived from a precise blending of three different specialty barley malts, chocolate, black patent, and Munich malt. Munich malt is also added to bring about the creamy body of this malty brew that has an original gravity of 1060. The most impressive aspect of ths brew is the perfect balance between the specialty malts and coveted Mt. Hood hops. Unlike many other dark beers, East Side Dark doesn't have the bitter aftertaste associated with it. Instead, your palate is greeted with the rich body and balanced flavor that only this beer can deliver.

Pours deep red/brown. Not much to the nose. To me, a little skunky flavor. An otherwise ok brew.

Oostkant!!! Burnt chocolate with a peaty topsoil nose. Earthy and rich. Very dark brown, small tan head. Wow. Pretzels. Even the salt. Crisp and cracker like. I’m digging this character. It’s like Paul Newman pretzel sticks. Sweet lip smacking finish, molasses sweet.

Another bland effort from lakefront. Oh well. Brown pour. Come spent coffee on the nose with some toasted malt, dark caramel and very light hops. Flavor is malty and has a chocolate note. Nothing is really wrong with this beer, but it is just boring.

Got this in a mix 12-pack I picked up while visiting Milwaukee. Not a bad brew, but nothing special.

A very sweet and malty dark lager. Very sweet like dark cherries or dark chocolate with a honey bite. Pours dunkel dark.

Aroma is of coffee with some slight chocolate notes. Flavor is very similar but a slight watery palate that turned me off a bit.

Bottle... Poured a deep brownish/red with a thick, khaki head. Malted and toasty aroma. Big, foamy mouthful with roasted cocoa flavors, caramel and bready malts. Other flavors of dark fruits and a nutty, sugary syrup. No hops to be found which created a sweet, easy going finish.
