Jul 3, 2008 A surprisingly good one, enjoyed at the Washington DC outlet. A bit of carbonation, and chocolate malt. Light browncolour with a white head. Creamy, drying finish. Abit of sourness. It all worked and was very drinkable, despite having a few other beers that day, though none that burned the palate. Perhaps Jason tinkered it well, his last day cheers!

Jun 14, 2008 Tap at the DC location. Dark black beer, thick brown head. Aroma is quite nice and molasses-laden. Earthy herbal chocolate with a soft roasty toastiness. Herbal and a little bit toasty. Softly lagered malts and a nice roasty dryness. Pretty nice schwartz.

Jun 11, 2008 Dark brown. Very toasty nose with hints of roast and nutty complexity. A little bit watery and thin. The roast is cheap coffee with chocolate overtones.

May 28, 2008 On tap at Gordon Biersch. Pours a very dark brown with a nice bit of foamy head. Smells of roasts, malts and grains. Tastes much the same with hints of chocolate, burnt grain, malts and a nice smooth, dry, roasted finished. Very easy to drink, although fairly simple and forgettable.

May 13, 2008 500ml draft at Kansas City location. Malty, spicy aroma, grainy and roasty with suggestions of pumpernickel and rye breads. Shows hints of doughy yeast and mild hop as well. Mostly clear dark brown in color, head is subsiding and sparse thereafter. Flavor is lightly roasty, malty, spicy and mildly bitter, with further notes of dark bread, mildly peppery spice, traces of burnt grain and showing some mild coffee on the finish. Palate is effervescent and dry, body is light-medium. Lingering earthy tones late. Not a bad interpretation.

May 12, 2008 Updated: Aug 8, 2008Draught, Miami. Deep dark brown with inch-thick even foam. Smells like toasted grain husks, tree bark. Malty body includes lots of apples. Not bad; the only clean pour of the night unfortunately.
rich velvet black with small white head, opaque. Mild, malty aromas, chocolate syrup, some dark berries, and licorice. Thin. Nice malt. Clean. Licorice, chicory, and cocoa. Abrupt finish but for some lingering malts. Not bad.
