Jan 25, 2009 Sampled from 12-oz bottle, shared by moelikebeer. Pours a semi-clear dark brown brew with a thin and creamy off-white head that slowly dissipates to a thin ring. Aroma of toasted dark and black malts, a hint of coffee and dark pitted fruits. Taste is medium bodied with flavors of dark malt, some toasted bread crust, flowery hops and a touch of coffee. Finish is semi-dry with a toasted dark malt and some light caramel.

Aug 31, 2008 The color was dark brown/black. The head was thin, creamy, and off-white. The aroma was coffee, chocolate, and spice. The flavor was smoke, meat, and spice. The palate was lightly carbonated. The finish was roasty.

Aug 31, 2008 Pours a dark black with thin frothy light tan head. The nose is roasty, grainy, chocolate grain, slightly sweet, coffee. The flavor is a tad thin, roasty, not as big as the nose, coffee, a little sweet, some hop bite. The palate could be a bit bigger, seems kind of washed out at the end. Still pretty good for a black lager.

Aug 26, 2008 Roasty, earthy chocolate flavor. Moderately sweet. Malty choco-roast aroma that is a mirror of the flavor profile. A little on the thickish side, medium bittering. Great label. Some complexity, and it definitely had more character than Shiner Schwarz that I had in a back-to-back comparison. Respectable.

Aug 25, 2008 Coffee flavor. I enjoyed this beer as well as the story behind the name. Pours a deep dark black with hardly any light getting through. Creamy tan head with spotty lacing. Nose is roasted coffee, cocoa and some smoke. Tastes a lot like it smells with a mild hop finish.

Jul 16, 2008 Pours dark, black almost with a carmal head. Smells of smoke. I do admit that it is a bit watery. Tastes of wood and smoke were not too appealing. Could not finish the glass. Have another? No thanks...
