Mar 18, 2009 Wicked,my first Brazilan rating.I like Schwarzbiers .They’re my thing & we need more on the scene.This is ok but a little subdued. Nothing like the imortal Herold black lager.Oily,earthy-and sweet ,with chocolate and soy sauce.Lacks base and guts. Eazy to slam I guess.

Mar 14, 2009 Light notes of caramel and licorice. Pours black with a frothy tan head at first, but soon fades and laces well. Slight flavors of coffee caramel and licorice, though none are overpowering. Somewhat bitter in the end. meh.

Mar 12, 2009 330ml bottle (K CM Kamppi, Helsinki)
Very dark, beige head. Stodgy malty porridge aroma, a bit sweet, heads towards mammi and malted milk biscuits as it warms. Pleasant carbonation. Grainy and roasty porridge and malt loaf taste, including the raisins. Some light coffee too. Old dusty finish, sweet and a little treacly for a while then drops back onto hints of dry husky grains. Looks good, and goes down very well at the end of the evening

Mar 5, 2009 Pours a near pitch black, half inch tan head. Caramel and cherry-like aroma. Not quite dynamic as it could be, finish is a sweet caramel then bitter coffee. A little cloying. But an interesting beer.

Mar 4, 2009 4-20-08. Bottle. Pours jet black with a nice tan head. Smells of soy and malt. Tastes of sick fruit, worcheshire sauce, honey, and malt grains. The weirdest taste I’ve encountered yet. Not good. Maybe just against my grains, because i was expecting better.

Mar 4, 2009 Honestly I can find nothing wrong with this beer. Pours VERY dark. Aroma is sweet. Leaves no aftertaste but has a hint of sweetness.
