CELEBRATE WITH THE ALL-NEW DARKOASTER BLACK LAGER
To commemorate the opening of DarKoaster, Busch Gardens collaborated with The Virginia Beer Company to develop the DarKoaster Black Lager, a limited-release beer. This all-new brew is a traditional German-style Schwarzbier with hints of chocolate and coffee notes. Featured at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, this limited-edition pour is now available on draft and in commemorative cans to visitors 21 and up.
