Review – Fort Collins Kidd Lager

Submitted by Dan on May 11, 2009 – 4:07 pm No Comment

Fort Collins Brewing Kidd LagerFrom Fort Collins Brewery - This dark & intriguing Schwarzbier is brewed with Chocolate Malt and German Tettnang hops for a balanced, Crisp, Clean taste. Dark caramel in flavor with a finish reminiscent of a Smoking Gun.

The Fort Collins Brewery – Kidd Lager – 12 oz. bottle poured into a pint glass. 4.1% abv.

Appearance: Pours a midnight amber letting almost no light through.  There wasn’t much of a head, leaving only a gathering of white suds on top.

Aroma: Spicy malt, bready malt, and roasted malt.

Taste: Sweet molasses bread, smokey peaty malt, a tad bit of fruitiness is found as well.

Mouthfeel: Thick and fizzy.

Overall: A very tasty Black Lager that borders on Porter and Scottish Ale territory.
