Oct 19, 2009 500 ml. swing top bottle. Pours a thick light tan head, of long duration, with extensive lacing, over a clear, dark brown (SRM 26) body.....nose is medium malts with some coffee, bit of chocolate, spice hop....taste is medium roasted malts with cereal, light coffee, light cocoa, finishing with mild bitterness of roasted malt with a hop addition, dry throughout....mouth feel is light to medium, carbonation medium. This meets the style almost perfectly, with both nose and taste being spot on. This is an attractive flavorful beer, which is light enough to consume in vast quantities.

Oct 12, 2009 Bottle, 500ml. Reddish, copper colour, pours a great big light brown head with medium length. Plenty of carbonation going on. Nice roasted flavour, low bitterness. Pretty underwhelming actually. In a word: Disappointing, I expected more!

Sep 27, 2009 Bottle. Pitch black, with a tall light tan head. Creamy roasted malt aroma, with chocolate, caramel, a bit sweet, but very creamy and lactic. Relatively sweet flavor, very malty, roasted but not heavily so. Chocolate, vanilla, and some nutty, earthy undertones. Sweet but not overly so, not very hoppy, but rather dry, balanced by roasted flavors. Finish is moderate, dominated by roasted malt. A very nice, richly flavored Schwarz.
