Commercial Description:
Literally translated as "black beer," this is the darkest of our beers. Produced using special highly roasted German malts which impart a chocolate and coffee taste to the beer. And true to style, this beer is not bitter like Irish stouts which resemble it in color.

Sampled on draught at the pub: Pours a clear dark brown colour. Caramel and roasted malts on the nose. Taste is pleasent and firm. A little smokiness, mixed in with some milk chocolate and nougat. Overall very satisfying.

Pours a deep yet clear nut brown. Aromas of roasted malts and nuts. Flavor is light roasted nuts/hazelnuts/almonds with malt flavor present. Body is light with present carbonation yet light.

Tap. Pours a deep brown color. Flavors of roasted malt, chocolate malt, cocoa powder. Medium bodied, roasted and tasty. Nicely done. Cheers to Robert the brewmaster!

Sep 29, 2007 Draught at the brewpub. The beer was opaque black with a moderate amount of head. Burnt malt was the dominate flavor and aroma in the beer. Mildly sweet. Very drinkable for a Schwarzbier.

Thanks to my wife Heather for picking me up a growler (while in Menomonie) that I shared with friends after a night of bowling. Powerful roast aroma, with some hints of charcoal as well as light hops. The knock on this beer is that it is slightly one dimensional. However, that dimension is extremely well done. Great stuff.

Original rating, 9-2-07: 1/2 liter pour on tap at the brewpub. Sharp, coffee-like aroma. Pours a clear, dark brunette with a reddish hue. Large amount of light brown head. Tight bubbles. Produces extensive lacing. Great looking beer. Sharp coffee flavor, as one would expect given the smell. Some citrus. Hoppy. A touch of softer, dunkel-like flavors. Also a bit of dark chocolate and sugary candy sweetness. Light to medium body. Sharp and crisp in the palate. Tastes like a good stout with the appetizing, refreshing palate sensations of a good lager. 7/5/7/4/14::>3.7 <P>Re-rate, 8-7-09: Small pour (approx. 3 or 4 ounces), on tap at the brewpub. Vanilla and carmel coffee aroma. Pours dark brown with tan head. Dark chocolate and burnt malt tastes. Light body typical of Das Bierhaus brews. Fluffy in the palate. 6/3/6/4/13::>3.2 <P>Combined rating: 7/4/7/4/13::>3.5

If it wasn’t for Skyview, I wouldn’t be able to keep drinking magnificent beers from this slice of Germanic heaven. Black color with a thick head. Light aroma of slightly burnt malt. The taste keeps up the burnt, almost charred, malt profile. Very chalky mouthfeel. Slightly salty finish. Good lord, I could drink it by the gallon.

Thanks to Skyview for hauling back a growler of this most excellent schwarzbier. Dark black body with a creamy brown head. Roasted aroma with a salty character. heavy grainy body with an almost seaweed saltiness to it.

rerate at the pub. This thing holds up well in a growler, but damn is it amazing on tap.
