Oct 21, 2005 just bought a 6 pack of this. why do i keep buying leopold brothers’ beer? i’ve been disappointed in everything, including this one. looks exactly like a schwarzbier ought to, dark beer with a lasting tan head. but the aroma is too sour, buttery and brownie-like. more sourness--can this brewery make a beer that doesn’t have that house yeast sourness? get past the sourness, and it finishes okay....

Jun 12, 2005 So I was up at the brewery mack in March of 05 and I had what they called a dunkel. It was pretty bad. I was the first to add this beer as a dunkel but then I noticed that this beer was removed. Probably because they are calling it their schwarzbier on ratebeer. Whatever, the beer was not that good.

does not count  May 23, 2005 This usually good beer was a poor representation of what a schwartzbier should be. The beer has been good in the past, but how this is served is beyond me. No real nose, sour flavors. Ony thing that makes this a schwartzbier is the color.

Feb 6, 2004 Quite carbonated, indeed, and good and roasty - not rounded and full like some of the better schwarzes - too much of the house yeast sourness going on - I still found it drinkable and challenging, but the house character of this brewery is getting so one note I really can't hack it anymore.

Oct 23, 2003 Really dark appearance. Fairly thin but kicks like a mule. Heavily carbinated which gives a decent feel. Roasted dark malt flavors. Clean short end.
