Mar 27, 2009 12 oz bottle from awiseman01. Pours a deep brown black with a bubbly light tan head. Aromas of malts mainly, light coffee.
Flavors have some nice chocolate tones that go back and forth to coffee. A creamy milk chocolate. Full malt backing adds to the complexity.
Mouth is nicely carbinated with a medium to full mouth. Medium length sticky finish. Mild bitterness. Great schwarzbier. Plenty of full flavor.

Mar 24, 2009 black pour with a thin tan head. Aroma of espresso, brown sugar, and loads of roasted malt. Flavor is very roasty, lots of malt, some nice bitter cocoa, and an espresso finish. Really interesting beer, but i’m not sure if it’s that true to the style. none the less, its awesome!

Mar 15, 2009 Pours a very deep reddish blackish sort of color with a big smei loose tan head and plenty o’ lace. The smell is intense with moleasses and just a little coffee. Ther e is a nice bitter hoppiness to this as well wich pairs well with an intense roasy almost burnt flavor rounded with a nuttiness. Pretty nice a little more complex and a hell of a lot less fruity than I remember from the last time I drank this.

Mar 8, 2009 bottle - Pours very dark brown with a one finger tan head. It has a roast malt aroma with a small hint of chocolate. Flavor is sweet roast malt with some chocolate notes up front and a lightly hopped finish that balances it out nicely. Light to medium bodied with ample carbonation, it’s a good quaff.

Feb 27, 2009 Coming out of the bottle, this beer instantly captured my attention, man it was good looking. Black, no real highlights, thick tan head, small tight bubbles, nice retention. Roasted, and chocolate in the nose. Yup a little coffee too. Decent palate with a sharp start and nutty toasted end, also caramel. A bit watery in the palate but to be expected in this style. Very very good, I’m guessing best schwarzbier I’ve had.

Feb 22, 2009 Pours dark brown with mahogany edges. A large chunky tan head over the pour, has great retention and leaves some some lacing. Aroma is lots of roast, caramel, a decent amount of cocoa, char, and some herbal hop notes. Flavor is char, chocolate, some sweet grass, a little toffee, roast, caramel, black tea. Finish is char, burnt sugar, herbal hops, and light bitterness. Palate is medium thickness with a creamy entry, a slightly chalky finish and is slightly sticky. Pretty good
