Dec 17, 2009 Dark brown color; generous head. Perfumy aroma, a bit soapy, with roasted nuts. Good mouthfeel, good caramel and roasted nuts flavor, the body is lean but there is a pleasant residual sweetness; correct bitterness. Nothing exciting, but well brewed.

Dec 15, 2009 (Draught) Clear red with a smallish, but firm and tanned, lightly lacy head. Roasty Schwarzbier aroma with caramely touches. Lightly burned, roasted-malty flavor with caramel and a touch of sourish vegetables. Medium body, soft and lowish carbonation. Not too burned this time, but not too exciting.

Nov 23, 2009 It poured a pitch black liquid with a light brown foam that left very little lacing.
It had a smell of chocolate, spices, burned malt and a hint of plastic. That plastic smell wasn’t very pleasent.
Smooth mouthfeel with a thick body and low bitterness. Taste of chocolate, burned toast, malt and nuts.
A nice beer but the plastic smell draws down the points. Looking at other reviews not everybody seems to have had this problem, so might be worth trying another bottle.
