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.

12oz bottle. Poured a dark, dark brown color with a larger sized off white head. Aromas of roast, toasty, chocolate, and some coffee grounds. Tastes of the same roastiness, chocolate, lighter coffee, and toasted caramel. A very nice and enjoyable Schwarzbier!

Bottle courtesy of durhambeer. Pours dark brown with a thin white head. Smells of roasted malt. Tastes of chocolate and coffee. Not what I was expected.

Received 12-oz bottle from dkachur. Pours a near opaque dark brown colored brew with a thick and puffy beige head that has some nice retention and lacing. Aroma of chocolate floral hops, a hint of mocha, and creamed coffee. Taste is medium bodied, smooth, flavors of chocolate malt, a hint of coffee, lactose and some smoked malt. Finish a touch sweet and continues a chocolate malt aftertaste with no bitterness.

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.

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.

Pours a deep brown with a bunch of dark amber notes peaking through with a medium creamy/bubbly tan head that left some lacing. Aroma of rich toasted almost roasty malt, mixed toasted nuts, nice hop presence that offers citrusy and floral notes, also getting some coffee and chocolate. Flavor of light roasted coffee, milk chocolate, bready malt notes, hard pretzels, nuts, grains and a nice hop profile with lightly spicy hop notes along with some light citrus.

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.
