50 cL bottle, at Den årlige ølsmagning i Valhal. Pours deep amber with a light brown to tan head. Mild malty aroma, slight roasted. Flavour holds a nice dark caramel malt and slight roasted note. Ends mild roasted malty with a mild bitterness just lurking through.

Holstebro Øl Festival April 01.2006. Black/brown beer with a pretty good head. At first I think of a dunkel, but then more full notes of roasted malt, caramel and a bit of coffee turn up. It’s an OK schwartzbier, and luckily not too sweet. Could have more body though...

Not that dark, deep brown appearance, paler than coffee. More toasty than roasty, quite sweet in fact with brown sugar, fruity and biscuity notes. Sweet in mouth and certainly simplistic, but drying out nicely enough to remain drinkable. Not quite what one expects in a schwarzbier, this is a sweet and rather smooth example avoiding the usual focus on roast, but for soft dry chocolate undertones. I did not get any sourness.
