A small tan head. and very black body. The smell is malty. The taste is slightly sweet with a balance of toasted malt. The body is slightly thin and watery. To me it seem like it has a papery taste with a bit of tartness. The finish is quick and not lasting.

Poured black in color with almost no head, but was khaki in color. Had an aroma of malt & chocolate. Had a watery flavor and a weak finish.

Nice schwarzbier in a bottle at a Churrascaria in Long Beach. Bartender was a Brazileiro who told me that they only recently began to distribute this in Brazil, it was originally made only for export. Good non-wateryness for a schwarzbier.

bottle. Poured jet black (surprise) with little tan head that quickly dissipated. Sweet malts on the nose blend with almost rose-like hop notes, molasses. Lager-like clearness and light body, rather thin but to be expected. An unusual curio, though nothing particularly interesting.
