We took our award winning flagship beer The Raven, jacked it up with more malt and hops but backed out the darker malts to lighten up the color and added Columbus hops to the boil. This gave us exactly what we wanted- more body, more mouth feel, some hoppiness balanced with the increase in malt, higher alcohol but with a much lighter colored beer that's deceptive when compared to our classic Raven Special Lager. Poe was always deceptive and seldom predicable. We showed this with our black Dark Usher, an unusual dark Kölsch that is as clean and light as any Kölsch and now Poe again comes true to form with this premium lager; visually light, but not light in taste and body. Light , but rich, full of flavor, a queer deception, typical of the master of the macabre.
