deep mahogany pour with lasting off-white head, this ’ur-bock’ has a slightly off-putting aroma and but a slight bitter but dry finish. I’m confused with the classification though. It says this a ’schwarzbier’ but it’s not dark and I don’t detect the usual roasted, chocolate malts one finds in such. Do I have the right beer? It’s says ’Dunkle’ but its more Bock than Dunkle

Pours a dark brown, with s small white head. Aroma is sweet roasted malt with some nuttiness. Flavor is pretty much the same. Clean finish. Very thin beer.

A decent schwartzbier here (says on the label). Average in nearly every catergory save for the look and smell which were a bit higher. The beer pours out a dark brown, nearly black color with a nice foamy head. An aroma of chocolate and subtle dark fruits (dark cherries?) moves foward on to a lighter tasting beer. Nothing heavy handed with this beer, although it is in the darker realm. Flavor is lightly chocolate, some raisins, and some hints of brown sugar. The whole beer is too weak though. Perhaps the brewers were shooting for sessionability? Nice to drink, as I mentioned not heavy in any way but there are better dark beers to be had.

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also, but there’s not much foam. The flavor is mild, modest malty, dry finish. An average dunkel.

Green bottle poured a clear dark reddish brown with a small lingering amber head. Aromas of carmel, light smoke, light skunk and hints of cocoa and cola. Palate was light bodied and crisp with a smooth finish. Flavors of toasted malt, burnt carmel, light toffee and hints of cocoa and skunk with a smooth moderatly bitter finish.
