Inspired by the Schwarzbier from Germany, this indigenous San Diego Black Lager is rich with aromas and flavors of the local coastline. Ingredients were inspired by what the Kumeyaay Indians might have been eating when they were on the coastline watching Cabrillo land on Ballast Point in 1542. This dark lager is made with handpicked and locally sourced ingredients. Ingredients include: Luna Oysters from Carlsbad Aqua Farms in Carlsbad, CA; Handpicked California Bay Leaf from Juniper Front Community Garden in Banker’s Hill, San Diego, CA; handpicked Coastal Black Sage from La Costa, CA; Nugget Hops from Star B Buffalo Ranch and Hop Farm; and Great Western 2-row Malted Barley grown around the Yreka, CA area. This savory, Black Lager goes well with food or in raising a toast to the oldest inhabitants of San Diego!

    Very Oyster stout like...dry and roasted with a very line brineyness. The addition of spices (bay leaf and sage) make this a complex treat of a whole nother variety, though. Unique and tasty.
