Sep 7, 2006 anything that say "BLACK" on the label i like. found this at a dept store in tokyo. dark brown pour with a fluffy mushroom head. nose of nutty roasted malts. flavors continue onto the palate but spill off with a watered down character of the beer. eh?

Aug 27, 2006 Updated: Sep 15, 2006Nice almost opaque black pour, with a beige froth that leaves no lace, but looks good. Aromas of faint malt, coffee, and mild dark chocolate. Tastes somewhat nutty, dark chocolate, watery coffee. FInishes fast, mildly bitter. I’m not a huge Schwartz fan.

Jul 29, 2006 Beautiful black walnut color with hints of red in the light. Lght tan/off white head. Smooth, light flavor with hint of nutty roast. Very light body overall with minimal to no hop flavor. Easy drinker.

Jul 4, 2006 Bottle: Dark black, off white head, nice lacing. Nose is lightly sweet, some metal and roast, light fruit and juice. The falvor is thin, some astringent roast and metallic hop bitterness. A bit of coffee and chocolate, the finish is light and thin, decent schwarz.

Jun 13, 2006 Crimsony brown, thin tan creamy head. Nose held soft notes of mild roasted chocolate and toast. Flavor held similar characteristics with more light roasty notes, touches of nuttiness, and a very soft late hop tone. Light bodied and watery, medium carbonation, roasty, lightly bitter finish. The key word throughout is certainly light. Not terrible, but I just recommend sticking to the Ichiban for sushi…

Jun 2, 2006 Light black colored beer. Amber and brown around the edges. Light khaki colored head that is quite resilient. Nose is zero on this beer. Nothing. Smells like...carbonated malt beverage. Nothing subtle nothing. Almost smells like seltzer water. Flavors aren’t much better. Winey malts at first. Dried plums...maybe. Fades into a cardboard like softness and carbonation is rather fare. Mouthfeel is ok. All in all not worth the $2.50 I paid for one.

Jun 1, 2006 Roasted malts, light chocolate hints, pretty drinkable, not overpowering, abit on the watery side, but still an ok drink.

Apr 23, 2006 Smell is almost nonexistant, but what there is is a little sour. Deep brown with a dark cream, persistant head and good lace. The flavour is nice with a little of the rice coming through in a good way (unlike, say, budweiser), and the finish is fresh if thin. All in all, it’s drinkable, but too flavourless and too thin.
