Commercial Description:
This is a traditional German style dark lager beer. Flavors of chocolate or coffee are common, but usually subtle. Just because the beer is dark, doesn’t mean that the flavors are. Expect the beer to be opaque and black, as the name would imply.

Sampled on draft at Smokin Joes this beer poured a black color with a small tan head. The aroma was sweetish, tangy, mildly bitter and had a touch of malted milk. The flavor was bitter, dry and roasty with a touch of coffee and nut. The finish was long, dry and roasty. Fairly full bodied. Nice.

Very dark, nearly opaque black color with a small, light tan head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of roasted malts, cocoa, caramel, burnt toast, and anise. Taste of roasted malts, anise, smoke, dark chocolate, and dark fruits, with a lingering sweeter toffee / toasted malt finish.

Bottle. Pours a black body with a than head. Roasty licorice like aroma with some woody caramel and a light roasted malt. Licorice is the dominating aspect of the flavor. Nice brew.

Bottle. Love me some duck rabbit beers! Pours a dark brown almost black. Small white head. I get roasted malt and coffee as the primary aromas. Flavor is roasty and a tad bitter with a good coffee dose. I dont get a whole lot of chocolate in this one. But its good. Most DR beers are.

Given to me by a friend from PA, Since I can’t get Duck Rabbit in NYC Appearance: Opaque black, moderate carbonation, light brown head (great retention). Aroma: Dry cocoa, bittersweet chocolate, some nuttiness, hints of coffee, roasted malts, and that metallic lager taste. Taste: Very impressive! A nice bittersweet chocolate, roasted malts, some sweet coffee in the aftertaste, and some of that metallic lager taste (blended in well) Mouthfeel: While cold ie out of the fridge, the mouthfeel was sorta light, but once it warmed up to about 48-52F a nice creaminess replaced the former sensation and made the beer quite enjoyable. Overall: My new favorite Schwarzbier!!!
