Sep 4, 2009 This was my first schwarzbier/black lager. It was mostly black in color with brown around the edges where the light could peek through. The initial smell was malt vinegar, so much so that I thought they might have accidentally gotten some in my glass. It was a good smell though and I pushed onward to the tasting. The taste was a clean, lager taste with a smooth mouth-feel. I enjoyed this beer and one day I think I will be able to truly appreciate well made lagers.
Serving type: on-tap

Jun 23, 2007 tap at the brewpub. black body that is red/brown on the sides when held to the light. nice gray head. aroma, well, can’t say there is much of one really. slight scent that reminds me of a stale cookie. i can tell something is here, just not what exactly. black patent astringent note at first then i start to think maybe it is something else entirely. this is clean, really clean, not much lingering here. some light doughy notes then some honey flavor. honey flavor without it being sweet. o.k. not sure whats going on here now. interesting and a decent enough food beer.
