Jun 12, 2008 At the brewery. Pours a very dark red/brown with smallish tan head. Smells of smoked roasted malt, and coffee and a little bit of hops. Flavor is roasted malt and a light smoke, chocolate. Medium bodied but tastes really light. Personal favorite of FCBs.

Jun 1, 2008 Bottle. Pours a very deep reddish-brown with an average size somewhat-lasting frothy tan head. Aroma of smoky roasted malt, a little nutty and with some light hops. Flavour’s malty, lightly smoky along with nuts, some chocolate and a light bitter finish. Medium bodied. I didn’t know this was a Schwarzbier before I poured so this was a pleasant surprise and I enjoyed it -- well done.

May 27, 2008 Poured a opaque black hue with a tan head, which had minimal retention. Aroma was subtly smoky with pleasant cocoa notes. Smokiness was a little more present in the aroma and was smoothly balanced out by sweet malt notes. Finish was crisp and the beer was overall refreshing. good.

May 13, 2008 WOW completely taken off guard by this beer. i didnt expect much from this brewery, but this beer was fantastic and I am going to buy more. Poured out a deep brown almost black color with a small tan head. aroma was malty and full of chocolate. Flavor was reserved at first and then came on with a wonderful sweet chocolate malt hit with a clean lasting finish. Great beer!

May 11, 2008 Bottle, 12 oz. Black with a cremay tan head. Malty dark fruit aroma. Slihjtly roasty on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation, and a dry finish. There’s some complexity here, but with such a low ABV, it’s not reaching full potential.

May 7, 2008 12 oz bottle from Oak Tree. Dark brown in color with a small light tan head. Aroma- chocolate, dark fruit-plums, molasses, light smoke. Taste is chocolate malt, caramel/molasses, notes of dark fruit with a light smoky finish. Nice mouthfeel and body for a beer that is so low in alcohol. Very nice.
