Airpocalypse Beijing Black Lager

Jing-A Brewing
No ratings yet · tap to rate
🌍 China · Schwarzbier · One of 19 Schwarzbiers in hopIQ

Jing-A's most darkly humorous beer — named after Beijing's notorious air pollution. A smooth schwarzbier with subtle roasted malt, a hint of chocolate and a surprisingly light, clean finish. Airpocalypse is deceptively easy to drink for a dark beer: the smog might be thick outside, but the beer goes down beautifully.
