Bottled. Deep brown, nearly black coloring with not much head. The flavor and aroma were dominated by caramel and chocolate that was slightly toasty. Pretty good.

Dec 31, 2009 Very roasted and chocolate flavored. Sampled out of a bottle so I cannot attest to its appearance. Aroma is malty and strong. Alcohol is not too noticeable in this one. Overall, enjoyable

sweet-malty §schwartz T1, sweet-dark-malt lager §hop-leaf T2, dry T3.
smooth and refreshing, especially if drank cold on a warm autumn day, hops barely detectable, too metallic, too top-of-the-tongue.

Dec 28, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pour was dark brown with a small tan head. Nose is roasted malt, spicy hops with some coffee and chocolate notes. Medium to full smooth body. Flavors begin with sweet roasted malts, chocolate and some earthy hops, while finish is dry with coffee notes. Quite tasty beer from SA.

Dec 26, 2009 12 oz bottle served in a tulip. Pour was cola with three fingers of light tan head. Nose is roasted malt, caramel, chocolate, and a hint of earth. Taste is black liquorices, light caramel, and trademark lager characteristics. Kind of odd this brew, it tastes like the light, wet body/pallet of a lager, but somewhere threw in roasted malts and black liquorices. Not bad, but I can’t say I really like it either. Strange brew!

Dec 23, 2009 My mouth is filled with the flavor of coffee beans and chocolate malt. This beer has a very clear and defined roasted taste and aroma. Not my favorite, but it’s not a bad beer.
