Bottle. High fluffy but lasting off-white head. Hazy dark borwn body. Coffee caramel aroma. Very sweet and sugary burned malt flavor. Low carbonation. Long and sweet aftertaste.

On tap at Berliner Bierfestival. Dark brown, almost black, body with a nice, beige head on top, leaving nice lacings. Sweet and roasted nose, a bit boring. The flavor has the same sweetness and roastiness, and some caramel as well. Full, sweet mouthfeel. The finish is a bit cola-like, with sweetness, caramel and some roast. A disappointing schwarzbier, the sweetness makes it almost a stronger cousin of the Danish hvidtøl. (070805)

50 cL bottle. Pours dark brown with a reddish hus and a lacing head. Sweet and slight roasted aroma. Very sweet sugarish, much like a danish hvidtoel. Ends malty sweet. Nice.

bottle - Pours almost black with a thin head. The aroma is roasty with a hint of coffee and some dark fruit. The flavor is intensely sweet and quite fruity. For the first few sips it was very good, but the sweetness soon became too overpowering. Go for this beer if you like them really sweet.

Bottled, 500ml, courtesy of DerDoppelbock (many thanks). Black to dark brown with cream head. On opening there is a rich fruity aroma with deeply roasted malt, a great start. The overlying flavour though is of a sugary, glucose sweetness which permeates through the whole of the beer. I can get a blackberry fruitiness and some winey malty, even coffee notes, but the sweetness remains predominant. An interesting beer certainly.

Bottle. Dark red brown beer with a huge and long lasting palebrown head. Aroma of roasteds malts with some burned notes as well as some sweetness. Taste is much too sweet, sugary with vague notes of smoke. I prefer the badebier from the same brewery much more.

Bottle at KØ07. Fruity aroma. Almost black colour, almost no head. The flavour is quite sweet, reminding me of hvidtøl, some brown sugar.
