Dec 28, 2008 From bottle, in red wine glas (all they had). Pured a very dark, black body. Mostly diminishing head. Soft carbonation. Medium malty and roasted, sweet feel. Smells dark bread, grain, hints of chocolate and coffe. Light citrus and a bit of leather. Very light touch of raisin and vanilla as well somewhere out there. Light sweet flavor with moderate bitterness , nice and pretty long finish. Not as good as the top dark czech dark lagers but a very good and very drinkable version of it. Cheers!

Dec 11, 2008 [35.5cl bottle] Dark ruby colour with a thick and lasting beige foamy head. Roast-malty aroma with a rather complex spectrum of notes of caramel, cacao, coffee and hints of licorice, even subtle berry-fruity notes are detectable. Bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied with an almost creamy mf. Roasty malty taste with predominant notes of mocha and licorice. Moderately dry, burnt bitter and quite lasting finish with a rounded malty sweetness. A well-made Schwarzbier from the US [11.XII.08].

Dec 8, 2008 Bottle. Pours a reddish brown with a small, but creamy white head that leaves decent lacing. Nose is light smoky malts and even lighter cocoa. Taste is caramel, more light roasted malts, some sweet chocolate and a touch of coffee in the finish. Medium mouth feel. Not bad.
