Pours black with a thin, espresso like head. Quite easy in the mouth, nice hints of coffee, bitter biscuity body.

I’ve had this one in New Zealand on my honeymoon.
Black of course ;) Smooth roasted flavor. Nice.

Bought at Robbie’s Bottle Shop on George St in Dunedin, NZ. Sweet and thick for a schwarzbier. Interestingly, schwarzbiers are a VERY popular style in NZ, which makes me happy. No aroma, no hops - lovely.

BJCP tasting. Dark black, little aroma. Fair head. Roast malts but little to no hop influence. OK but not the best we tried this night.

This black beer has a medium head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt and licorice. It’s like it sat down between two chairs: Schwartzbier and porter - it’s more powerful than the first and thinner than the other. It has notes of smoked malt, chocolate, licorice and coffee in a nice balance. It’s good - but I wish it had chosen to go all the way, so that it had more body...
