Dating back to at least 800BC, Schwarzbier (otherwise known as Black Lager) is the oldest known style of European beer. Black in colour, but with the crisp refreshing body of a lager, this beer gets its popularity from its intricate balance mixed with delicious drinkability! As usual, we brew one ourselves and talk about it, then try these commercial examples: Köstritzer - Schwarzbier https://www.koestritzer.de/ Würzburger Hofbräu - Schwarzbier https://www.wuerzburger-hofbraeu.de/de/whb/ And Union - Neu Black Lager http://www.andunion.com/en/ If you're interested in brewing this beer you can find the recipe at www.themaltmiller.co.uk
