jeremytoni (1067), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA Aug 16, 2009 From the tap poured dark brown black with a fair amount of head. Nice malty flavor with a quick finish. Ungstrup (14724), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jun 15, 2009 Draft at the Carlsbad location. A black beer with a red shine under a tan head. The aroma is very malty combined with notes of bread and caramel. The flavor is sweet malty with a light acidic edge from the roasted malt, since it is rather roated, and has a dry, bitter, and roasted finish. 28 IBU’s. MIne was stated at 4.4% ABV. alexanderj (2212), Chino Hills, California, USA Oct 26, 2008 On tap at Carlsbad location. Color of dark brown with a light chocolate head. Aroma of chalky malt, roasted malt and cocoa. Flavor was chalky, roasted and cocoa. Fairly standard for the style, lacking anything special. Palate was a bit watery. Just ok. yespr (11613), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 6, 2008 From tap at the brewpub in Carlsbad. Pours dark brown to black with a lacing tan head. Smooth roasted malt flavour with a nice liqourice note. Liqourice hops and dry roasted malt finish. Mild bitterness coming through. DenverLogan (421), MileHi, Colorado, USA Mar 10, 2008 Very dark brown; lingering small brown head. Rich and smooth...easy drinking, rich malts but not overpowering. Creamy, great balance of rich roasted malts, cocoa, grains but with a slight sour fruit finish. On tap at Churchill’s. AbeerWolf (27), USA Jan 30, 2008 Smooth, rich flavor that tapers off after the first couple of sips. Aroma is slightly hoppy with the chocolate malts coming through after. Body is lively but not overwhelming. Good overall beer that is perfect for a warm San Diego evening. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Name: Black’s Beach Extra Dark

riversideAK (2648), Shoreline, Washington, USA Jul 10, 2007 A roasty chocolate malt aroma. Definite sweetenss comes through in the nose. The beer is black with a tan head. It looks a little muddy and crude as well. Flavor is intensely roasty, nutty, and chocolatey. It finishes pretty crisp with a lingering coffee flavor.
