Our Tastes-- The Raven Special Lager

Made by Baltimore-Washington Beer Works, this one is quite surprising! The Raven label says, "The Taste is Poetic", and I believe it is. For a lager the aroma is expected and the pour is a dark straw with some crazy jack in the bottom of the pint. The taste for lager is great!! Named in honor of Baltimore's own Edgar Allan Poe this beer is said to be appealing to both the lager and ale drinker, I'll admit it may be the best lager I've had to date. There's a slight sweetness to it that I can't quite place and I wish I had more than just one to drink, "Quoth the Raven, 'Nevermore'.
