Apr 3, 2009 A great schwarzbier. A nice smoky aroma, and deep, dark brown color. Flavor is rich with malts, and has a nice (but not overwhelming) smoky taste. One of my favorite session beers.

Mar 30, 2009 Pours a dark brown with a thin brown head. Aroma is coffee, roasted malt and some smokiness. Flavor is dark chocolate, roasted caramel malts and some smoke. Mouthfeel is a little on the thin, watery side but not bad. Comparable to NB’s 1554

Mar 25, 2009 Bottled. Poured black with a medium brown head. Aroma was smoked meat and coffee with some charcoal notes. Flavor was sweet light chocolate, light coffee, and light smioke notes. Medium body with some good smoke action making this an easy drinker.

Mar 21, 2009 Woah. Big surprise here. Didn’t read the label so I’m surprised with the result here. This one pours black with a lumpy tan head. The aroma is surprisingly smoky with hints of chocolate. The flavor is rich and chocolaty with a great smoky finish. Surprisingly full bodied for such a low ABV beer. Definitely plan on keeping this one in regular rotation.

Mar 8, 2009 Ah, what a nice beer. The beer has a nice opaque black color; very nice! Nice thin head, but it quickly fades away. Nice, somewhat of a pungent roast aroma. You really don’t get that smokey part until you actually taste the beer. Nice smoke and raost taste for a lager. Nice chocolate malt in the finish. Not a VERY creamy/smooth beer, but still very nice palate. For a lager this beer is nice.
