Feb 15, 2009 500 ml bottle. Black but lets reddish light through. Slightly
roasted dark malt aroma with a distinct grainy aroma. Sweet wort
flavours with a light grainy dry and roasted flavour. Hints of smoke
and stout. Very different from other schwarzbiers, except for the
dark colour.

Feb 8, 2009 Bottle, bought @ YNWA, Kolding.
Pours deep chestnut brown with a big, creamy, beige hed. Fine duration and leaves nice lacings. Lightly tarty aroma, some roasted malts and sweetness. Light carbonation, fine mouthfeel, a bit thin perhaps. Flavour is very sugary sweet, light roasted, some nuts, but this is very sweet and almost like the Danish "nisse-øl".

Oct 30, 2008 Thanks 17thfloor! Pours black with a very small white foamy head. Aroma is very sweet, a lot lot lot like processed candy corn. Malty with a small bit of alcohol that is apparent even in a 3.9% ABV. Flavor starts and ends sugary sweet. Very caramely and overly sugary. Getting to be like candybeer. Too much residual sugar, this one needed more time in the fermenter. A tiny bit of smokiness in the finish. Medium body and average carbonation. Way too sweet with little else to offer.

Oct 19, 2008 0.5l bottle in Berlin. Aroma was strong of nuts and malt. Poured a thick black with no head. Palate was smooth, and quite similar to a cola. Taste was incredibly sweet and malty, with hints of nuts.

Oct 1, 2008 Pours a milky black with a small beige froth, pour lacing. Huge tobacco aroma, dirt, hay and light roast. First taste is super sweet, tastes like someone dumped an entire jar of sugar in a small cup of coffee. Some chocolate, but sooo much sugar. Lightly smokey. Its not a bad cup of coffee... just a lot of sugar. Smooth creamy, lightly syrupy body.
