We were full, but we couldn’t resist a new brewery, and I’m glad we made ourselves fat and bloated. Dead Language Beer Project in Hartford, CT makes some of the best lagers and rauchbiers I’ve ever had.

Redding Beer Company, Caius Farm Brewery (Branford), and East Rock Brewing Company (New Haven) have some competition in the “let’s not have six NEIPAs on tap” brewing space! :yelp: :untappd: :ctbeertrail:

This is the American made “Czech Style” dark lager that motivated me to try the real thing. I love everything I've tried from Moonlight Brewing, including this. It has some similarities to the Praga Dark Lager, including the red color and a crusty bread nose and taste. But it's a lot lighter, both in appearance and taste; I'd be reluctant to characterize it as a “Dark” at all. It seemed simpler as a well; not quite as many flavors in the mix. I'd call the Moonlight more refreshing in hot weather, while the Praga a better late-night fireside beer.

I actually tasted the Moonlight 4 weeks ago; I need to put these two side-by-side for a fair comparison. But it's hard not to note that really excellent American-made European-style beers run over $5/can, compared to $2/bottle for an actual #CzechBeer.
