Commercial Description:
The second Lager in our line –up, Black Cockatoo is modeled on the Schwarzbiers (black lagers) of Germany. A deep ruby black colour this beer displays all the classic traits of its style. The aroma is a delicate balance of roasted malt and noble hops whilst in the mouth it shows a delicate bitterness that holds in check malt flavours of caramel and chocolate. Black Cockatoo is a light-medium bodied beer and is very good match with grilled lamb, roasted pork or spicy rice dishes.

Quite dark and malt heavy. this is a good, easy drinking schwarz that never outstays it’s welcome.

330ml bottle. Vegemite black in colour with a rich tan creamy foam mountain sitting on top. Strong aromas of roasted malt and barley, with toffee and mocha undertones. Pours thick but is thin in the mouth and quite full flavoured with a long strong aftertaste.

Sample at MT Brewery. Pours almost black with a small white head. Aroma and flavour of roasted malt, chocolate, caramel and brown sugar. Sweet mouthfeel and malty finish. A little too sweet for my palate but a decent Schwarzbier overall.

On tap @ the Mount. Pretty much ticks all the boxes for a good schwarzbier. Maybe overplays the roast barley a touch in aroma and slightly higher in bitterness than I’d prefer - still a good seasional, and I’d enjoyed a more than few last visit.
