Sep 19, 2004 Wow, I thought this was a scwarzbier. Pours clear dark brown/ruby with a creamy, white head. Aroma of malt, hops, fruit, corn flakes. Tastes of roasty malt, cabernet, slight nuts. Finishes malty, with some chocoff and nuts. Medium palate. Not an elite beer, but a very drinkable one. I’d buy this again, and for a buck a bottle at Half Time, I’ll definitely be seeing this one again.

Sep 2, 2004 Bottle pours a crystal dark amber with a short lasting head. The aroma is roasted barley malt. The flavor is malty, chocolate, and coffee around the edges. The palate is quenching. Overall, pretty average.

Jul 29, 2004 Pours a deep walnut colored body with edges of amber. The head is a light kaki color, fairly fluffy and dense. I aroma brings hints of freshly grated coconut, chocolate, a vague hint of cold coffee with the always delightful accompaniment of toffee malt. Although the palate is more like a glass of syrupy Coca-Cola the flavor brings all the tasty notes that I mentioned in the aroma, actually more. I find some sweet hints of raisins, and figs, a little plum.. fudge and a hint of burnt wood.
Although this brew is loosely complex it is rather enjoyable and one that is awfully easy to drink!

Jul 19, 2004 33cl bottle code 09.12.02 An old beer?? looks black until the light makes it look ruby...thin head smells of sweet malt, figs and raisins, this must have some aged on it. Just dissapoints after that, thin, not much but some malt...really thin in feel and flavor...a dissapointment but nothing awful...worht trying if you want something that looks and smells like it is a big beer, but then drinks like an AB product.

May 30, 2004 Schwarzbier bottle. Dark reddish/black color. It has a funky taste that doesn’t seem to be the same as the regular dinkel taste. I’m inclined toward not finishing the bottle, because this is kind of nasty. Maybe it’s a fluke.
