Mönchshof Schwarzbier- "the Black Pils"- is a brewing wonder and a brew-lover's dream. Supremely drinkable, dry and beautifully hopped, yet loaded with dark malt flavor.

On tap at Map Room in Chicago. I thought this was maybe the best example of a schwarzbier I’ve tried. Plus it tasted very fresh on tap. Almost a more subdued version of a boch-- it had a nice sweet malty flavor. But nothing too strong-- very well balanced. I tried many beers that night-- and this one stood out.

Bottle. Slightly sweet Pils aroma. Beautiful black color with ruby tints when held to the light. Decent, off-white head. Slightly thin mouth feel. Flavors of sweet, roasted malts. Despite not having access to many, I really like this style of beer. I like this one.

0,5 l bottle from Frankfurt airport, enjoyed on a Cyprus balcony. Lovely dark beer with some gold shing through. Firm head, smoky flavour, but a little thin. Some coffe, some roasted grain. A sutle, understated beer, easy-drinking, an exceleltn alternative to a pils.

bottle @ the rake. This was just not a good night for beer! Dark ruby red with a thick, dense off white head. Smells and tastes of cereal. Packed with damp wood, roasted malts and some spice. I’d never want a cereal that tasted like that!

Bottle, at csbosox KC tasting 4/14. Bottle provided by John. Amber brown pour, with a highlight of red. Bif tan head. Cocoa creamy taste. Slight bit of roast in the after taste. Very drinkable beer.

Don’t know why, but I was in the mood for a Schwarzbier. This one fit the bill very nicely. Chocolatey aroma with caramel. Dark and reddish, tan thick head. Sweet palate along with toffee-taste and roasted malty goodness. Nice.

Bought the 1.32 gal. Pours a dark brown color, with a huge tan head. Hints of malts, caramel, wood, and coffee. Finishes sweet with huge presence on the tongue. I also mixed it with coke, it was delicious.
