Syrup. Dark. Sweet. Hopped. Dig into deep to the black beer. You can get stuck.

This beer’s aroma is clearly it’s best quality. When it hits the right temp, notes of fruit, scorched chocolate, light smoke and chicory coffee really shine. Appearance has a deep brown body, damned near black, with a frothy, sea foamy 3-finger thick head. Soft notes of coffee and chocolate are there, as well as some fruity notes with a touch of yeast. Enjoyable schwarzbier, but nothing exceptional.

Not my favorite Schwarz. Not a good depth of flavor and too hoppy for my taste. I did however also smell a bit of the Parmesan cheese though.

Pours dark rootbeer colored with a large frothy beige head. Aroma of sweet raisins and yea I can actually smell a tad of pamesan Ungstrup speaks of. Full creamy mouthful, subtle carbonation, very milky. Raisins, creamy chocolate, roast, half&half creamer, and a touch of caramel in the flavor. Maybe some light smoke as well. I do taste some pumpernickel. Pretty dry.

Very dark clear mahogony brown, rocky tan head with little persistence. Aroma of roasted malts with some fruity lager yeast esters. Roast malts with molases and raisins. Dry light finish with some hop spiceyness. creamy mouthfeel with low carbonation.

500 ml bottle. Dark derrish brown, with a thick, beige head. Roasted malts and dark chocolate in the aroma. Flavour is like the aroma, with a hint of coffee and some hoppy bitterness i the finish.
