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.

(Bottle). Aroma is malty, light maple-cured ham. Dark brown body, thin light tan head. Flavor is malt, caramel, light fruit, fortunately not too sweet. Balanced finish. Very nice.

Pours dark brown with a nice tan head. Sweet aroma and a malty taste with hints of chocolate and coffee and a touch of caramel. One of my favorite Lakefront brews.

Crushed with Jakebra. Got it on tap at Wolski’s. Hell, if all else fails and you’re desperate for a brew, go for it. Very light bodied for a darker beer, and I’m told it’s partially made from the Milwaukee River, but overall it’s kinda aight.

Pours a translucent nut brown color with some amber highlights. Softly receding off white head leaves some clingy lacing behind. Nuts and spice in the nose, as well as a bit of dark toasted bread crusts. A touch of nutty earthiness in the flavor, with some light dried fruits, and a biscuity finish that lingers well after the finish.
