Aroma was light and of coffee and chocolate. Taste was kind of flat but noticed more chocolate above anything else. Minimal hop character. Palate was very average- not disappointing but not a very full body and tasted kind of watered down. Overall decent brew and an average schwarzbier. tgncc (824), Bellmore, New York, USA
