12oz bottle from total wine and more in atlanta. black pour with a thin off-white head that dissipates quickly. aroma is dark fruits, chocolate and a milky vibe. herbal roasty taste with caramel, smoke and the aforementioned chocolate. palate is thin to medium with not much carbonation. quick slightly metallic and chalky bitter finish.

Dec 17, 2009 A nice roasty smell. Quick-dissipating head. The flavor is roasty, a bit smokey and somewhat thick. A quite smoky finish. A decent beer, not great.

Dec 14, 2009 Bottle in Brooklyn. Dark body with slight head. Toasty, malty nose. Taste too of caramel and malts. Some hops as well. Nice balance. Spicy in the finish.

Dec 7, 2009 Pours dark brown, fizzy, cola-looking - fairly smoky, almost meaty in the nose at first, but this makes room for some notes of chocolate, charred sugar, woody, campfire smells - moderate carbonation, medium body - a touch astringent up front, with some noble hop bitterness - some chocolate comes out from underneath that - roast, caramelized sugar sweetness - the smoke is there, but not as much as it is in the nose, which is a little disappointing - lingering bittersweet chocolate - decent.

Nov 21, 2009 Light notes of licorice and just a wisp of smoke on the nose. Flavor is almost lagered-porter-like, with quite a bit of dark roasted flavor and - I’ll be damned if that "Smoking Gun" in the commercial description isn’t right on! - lightly metallic and smokeless powder finish.

Nov 4, 2009 12oz from Woodys in Franklin, TN. Pours a dark transparent brown with a thin tan head. Aroma is a really nice smell of roasted caramel malts and sweet dark fruits. Flavor is really nice...burnt wood and black coffee...nice burnt aftertaste. Medium mouthfeel, smooth. I really like this scharzbier...I could drink these all day...if you like the burnt beer kind of thing, this is right down your alley.
