Commercial Description:
Black is now a light beer. It has a stong froth and unique taste thanks to the special malts and the best aroma hops used in the brewing process, as well as to those who drink it.

(Bottle 50 cl) I do not understand Estonian and hence cannot read the back label of this beer. Therefore it’s still a complete mystery to me, why this is called a black beer. This beer is golden - dark golden at the most - with a fairly decent head. Fullbodied, sweetish with a hint of hops. This is a pretty OK strong lager. But "Black"? No way. And "Schwarzbier"?? Come on... 071103

<i>Bottled.</i> Golden larger coloured body with a thin white head. Corn syrup aroma, grainy and not overly inviting. Grainy flavour.

Light, golden and sparkling. White head with nice lace. Flowery and fresh nose. Light, fizzy and bitter. Aftertaste is bitter, pretty long.
