Feb 17, 2008 Tap at Blind Tiger. Very dark brown colour with a thick sticky tan head.. Aroma is great, sweet rich milk chocolate. Soft noble hop aroma and a nice light herbal chracter. Flavour is lightly toasty and nutty with a soft chocolate and a light crisp bitterness. Soft lingering roast and a bit of sulfury yeastiness on the back. Lingering bready yeastiness in the middle. Silky palate and a very fine texture. Great brew.

Mar 4, 2008 Druahgt at Black Tiger, NYC. Named Southampton Schwartzbier at the pub. Dark amber, nice creamy brown/beige head. Malty aroma, some chocolate. Malty fruity flavor, quite hoppy to be a schwarzbier. Some grass and some metal balancing the malty profile.

Mar 3, 2008 Draft at dba. Sturdy, big bubbled tan head. Aroma has classic sweet malts and spicy, fresh hops. First taste is cocoa along with mild but tasty chocolate. Very smooth mouthfeel and a as good of a beer for the style that’s out there.

Feb 23, 2008 Tap at Barcade: Pours a cola brown with a dense, creamy tan head. Nice toasted malt nose. Milky and rich with a dark grain bread touch. The body is creamy and fluffy. Nice malt depth to the flavor. Soft, roasted and mildly smoky. Apparent German malts give it a dark bread-like, chewy body. Very mild cocoa is apparent as it warms and it has a light coffee bitterness in the finish. A nice Schwarzbier.

Feb 15, 2008 Tap at Blind Tiger. Bitter, black coffee aroma, kind of has that "cold" nose to it. Don’t know how to describe it better, but it’s a sensation that I definitely get out of some beers, whether they are too cold or not.
Granted, the Blind Tiger, does serve their beers way too cold, but I digress... Flavor is very roasty, dominated by black malts. Chewy, with an empty, bitter finish. No hops, and a nice body.
