Sep 24, 2007 On tap, 9/22 at the brewery. Very dark color with some short lived tan foam, no lacing. Lots of dark malt in the aroma, very sweet smelling. A bit too thick in the mouthfeel for a Schwarz IMHO, almost resembles a hefty brown ale, lots of esters, not very lager like to me.

Sep 8, 2007 On tap at Flossmoor Station, and served in a shaker. This beer poured a dark black with a thin, quickly fading, light grayish/tan head. Very little lace was left behind. The aroma of the beer was made up of cocoa, light roasted malts, and also some light yeast. The flavor was mainly light roasted malts, with some caramel and chocolate at the finish. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with minimal carbonation. Another winner from Flossmoor.

Nov 15, 2006 On tap @ Cole’s. Slight brown light shines throughh, nice tan head. Nose is dry roasty malt, maybe some chocolate. Flavor is amazing - cocoa, very slight burnt but still sweet maltiness. Some cherry in the slightly caramel finish. Amazing body - light but not too thin.

Oct 27, 2006 Chi-town gathering at Flossmoor: Deep brown hue with reddish highlights and a small fizzy head. The aroma was smoky, chocolate, caramel, raisin, walnut, and earthy yeast esters. The taste has a nice smooth malt character with a surprising hint of bitterness. Smoky and woody finish added depth. The mouth feel is smooth and medium bodied. A nice refreshing black bier that is not cloy or chalky like many.

Oct 24, 2006 Updated: Feb 14, 2007I dont know about some of these ratings but this is what i received on tap.pours a black medium body with a huge tan head must have been just tapped. Aroma was a faint smokey malt and flavor was smokey malt with a faint hop flavor. Very different to me but in a good way very smooth taste, i guess thats why i picked up a growler of it. A must try!
