Bottled. A chestnut colored beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of sweet malt as well as lighter notes of roasted malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of lemon and roasted malt. The body is light. Thanks yespr for sharing.

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Clear orangey brown with an off-white head. Discreet aroma of roasted malt - not much lemon here. Light body, unclean notes of caramel, cardboard and bonbons with a vague tart lemon note. Ends tart. 050409

Bottle, 2.5%. Slightly sugary aroma. Clear dark brown colour. Small tan head. The flavour is citric, lemony. There is also a little roasted note from the schwarzbier. The beer can be tasted, but the lemonade is quite bad. Too citric and with aspartam aftertaste.

33 cL bottle. Pours clear, golden and deep brown with a small tan head. Roasted malt aroma and citrusy. Dry and roasted malt flavoured with a distinct citric flavour. Ends the same way with a lasting impression of citrus and malt not mixing well together.

The bottle looks really good, the beer in the glass also, but the foam disappears very fast. Aroma very sharp like lemon. Flavor the same, much too sharp and sourish. A nasty drink!

Lemony aroma with some malt. Very dark brown body with a small white head. Sweet and acidic flavor. Stupid beer.

Dark brown appearance. No head. no carbonation. Sweet sola taste. I think it’s sad to mix Schwarzbier and coke.
