Jun 30, 2008 On tap at the brewpub; surprsingly this was my favorite on the night. Poured a dark, almost reddish brown with a decent amount of head. Aroma was caramel and roasted; bit of chocolate. Flavor was very drinkable for the style with a nice blend of chocolate, caramel and fruity malts. Good for the style.

Jan 20, 2008 Sampler at NXNW- standard black with off tan head, perhaps 10% transparency, aroma of light roasted malt. Hits the mouth with a good medium wide body, can detect alot of the malt, finish very slightly bitter. Not bad, not bad at all.

Jul 28, 2007 Quite light for a black ale. Very muted flavor and smell. It had a slight hint of roasted malt.

Jul 28, 2007 Somehow I got apples in the smell yet again. Also some light malty roasted smells. Pour was a nice rich maroon to brown. Taste was decent, simple, a touch watery, and roasty, with basically no hops or bitterness. Very drinkable, and I could definitely get it again if in the mood for this type of beer. Actually better than the only other 2 Schwarzbiers I’ve had.

Mar 7, 2007 As far as black ales go...somewhat disappointing. The waiter told me to expect a strong taste of chocolate, which I did not. Very dark, a bit sweet, light finish.

Dark amber color. Light aroma. Some flavor of caramel and chocolate malt. Drinkable but too simple.
