| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Dec 11, 2007 Black/brown, the head is big-bubbly, but rather lasting. The aroma has notes of roasted malt and hops. The flavour isn’t as sweet as many other schwartzbiers, and I like that. It has notes of roasted malt, caramel, a hint of licorice and a slightly hoppy bitter finish. OK, but not one, I’ll buy again. caesar (3034), Bunnik/Utrecht, Netherlands

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 10, 2007 Bottled 50cl. It pours a very dark beer with a tanned head. Chestnut, malt, pineapple, hay and soap in the nose. "Vollwürzig und hopfenherb zugleich" on the label. A pretty cheesy description. But the beer isn’t that bad... Slightly sour with a good hop character in the taste. A nice and strong bitterness. Rather bready. Some herbs, honey and spicy elements are indeed detectable. An extremely well balanced dunkel. Some manure-like elements sneeking in to destroy the beer’s qualities. Decent, nothing more. TBone (6868), Pori, Finland

Dark ruby color, decent creamy brownish head, some lace. Burned malts and skunky hoppyness in the aroma. Lightly roasted malty/dark malt flavors, notes of woody hops. Short aftertaste. Quite watery and light palate. Harmless and boring schwarzbier. gnoff (3576), Göteborg, Sweden
