Märkischer Landmann Schwarzbier

Brewed by Berliner Kindl Brauerei (Oetker Group)
Style: Schwarzbier
Berlin, Germany

(Berlin, Germany). Looks good, tastes good, altho a bit too much sourness. Not the best schwarz I’ve had, but ok.

Delicious and dark with LOTS of flavor. A Xingu this is not. A touch roasty. Enjoyed in Berlin on tap.

Berlin Trip beer No.4 On draft at Sophien ’eck on Gosse Hamburger Str, Berlin Mitte - so go there if you want to find it on tap! Black/brown body, creamy head. Very light for such a dark beer - lemon citrus flavours, peaty undertones and a burnt finish.

So many schwarzbiers are all style (appearance and aroma) and no substance (weak flavor and palate). But i was quite happy with this one. Half-liter bottle pours black with amber highlights, and the tall, frothy, tan head disappears quickly. Nice malty, yeasty aroma reminds me of dark rye bread. Those roasty malts stand out in the flavor, as they should, and the beer goes bitter and ends quite dry. You can really coat your tongue with that burnt character, I can see why the last rater said "something smoky." Not an exceptional beer, but pretty damned interesting for a Schwarzbier.

in can 500 ml., Good color, dark bronze. The aroma is sweet. Raisins and something smoky. The sensation in the mouth, is Sweetish, toasting and something bitter in the end. Finish a enough length, that maintains the bitterness. Average body. It is not the beer that I hoped, but is very drinkable.

Dark ruby with a guisness like head , thinner but stout like, roast sweet little chocolate and little blackcurrent

Funny when I was in Berlin I didn’t see this anywhere on tap but I was able to buy a bottle of this and their swanky glass. Malty raisins, some roasty burnt-ness and a nice schwarzbier. Page 306 of Michael Jackson’s Great Beer Guide and only 321 out of his 500 Classic Brews to go.

Deep ruby coloured, big fluffy stable tanned head; malty, but mainly metallic cardboardy nose; mild bitter-sweet flavour, very light bodied, fizzy MF; watery, bitter-malty finish with a metallic tinge. Ooops, never again.........
