Bottle: Ruby black, tan head and light lacing. Nose of subtle roast, light sulfur and copper. The flavor is chewy, fairly dry and not much as far as a little fruity esters. Bland lagery and not enough roast. Fairly clean though.

Jan 4, 2009 Blah. A subpar schwarzbier. Aroma was near nil. Could pick up some light bread and chocolate notes. Pour was a a deep near black with a thin tan ring for a head. Taste was very thin and watery but nice a drinkable. The low ABV makes it seem like you could drink it all day. Very watery and thin with a light roasted malt flavor and just minor notes of chocolate and bitter malt.

Jan 1, 2009 Can, 4,4% Swedish version. Roasted malt, light salty aroma. Some light notes of chocolate in the flavour together with some bread. Quite thin mouthfeel but better than other beers of this type. Not a favourite but definitely drinkable.

Dec 9, 2008 Sweet malts on the nose, bready. Pours very dark brown no head. Dark malts, hints of chocolate, bitter chocolate, grassy hops, very fresh tasting, good roasty flavors but light and easy to drink.

does not count  Nov 29, 2008 Gott! Förvĺnande lite sötma. Inte sĺ bränd i smaken. Svag brödton, som i doften. Svaga nyanser av torkat korn.

Nov 27, 2008 On tap in Prague. Deep dark brown, beige head. Aroma of coffee, malts. Flavour is coffee, sweet dark malts, a little chocolate, some sourness, although I’m not sure that is supposed to be there. Medium bodied. I liked this one though, had some more going on than other dark Czechs I’ve had in Prague.
