Mar 28, 2009 Interesting in that it had a nice hop finish. Easy drinking, carbonation low. Light roasted flavors, a bit on the watery side though.

Dec 14, 2008 Deep dark brown with hints of red. Toasted malt aroma. Peat, toasted malt, with a pleasant bitter finish. Carbonation is good but it was a bit thin. A very good beer.

Aug 10, 2008 Draft at Arundel Mills. Pours deep coffee brown with a light beige head, spotty lacing.Lighter side of medium bodied with a lively but ultra fine carbonation. Lagery aroma with a hint of of roast. Flavor of cocoa powder, nuts, and dark roast. There is a slight bitterness that lingers, and the mild astringency fades as it warms

Aug 4, 2008 Draft @Bel Air location in May 2008. Kind of plain and boring. Thin/watery mouthfeel. Minimal chocolate flavor and malt sweetness, no hops to speak of. Not the best effort from DuClaw, but then I’ve never had a really impressive schwarzbier.
