5% ABV, Bottle
Appearance: Dark reddish brown with tan undertones, foamy off-white head.
Aroma: Roasty malts. A bit nutty, but not fruity. Hints of chocolate with a clear vanilla smell.
Taste: Tongue greeted by foamy head, roasty aftertaste. None of the fruity or caramel favors found in an ale. I would say malty, but definitely done with balance in mind. There is a slight hint of sweetness — perhaps nutmeg or vanilla — but nothing that pulls away from the malty lager flavor.
Mouthfeel: A certain creaminess to this medium-bodied lager. Noticeable, but not over the top carbonation.
True to its name, Wolverine Dark Lager gives you a full-flavored lager. The key here is it’s a lager, so even though it looks like an ale, it tastes, smells and feels like a lager. Very refreshing, yet flavorful. I am stunned by the creaminess, which trails off only at the very end for a refreshing aftertaste.
