On tap at a bar/restaurant near Lake Wallenpaupack, Pennsylvania. Dark brown pour, no head. A malty German beer - I had a little trouble identifying the style. The taste was pretty good - fairly dry and hoppy, but on the thin side.

Bottle: The description states that this beer is easy drinking. It wasn’t easy, but it wasn’t as hard as the others in the case. There were brief flavors of coffee and chocolate but they were gone quickly. Overall, best beer in the case..but that’s not saying much.

1st Schwarzbier, Initially the aroma is malty, with some albeit mild hops. Its appearance is trully black, but not motor oil. It’s flavor is a very clean with some roasty malt & hops as well. Its extremely smooth. I could drink this, but its sort of like a porter without the hutzpah. Sort of ordinary. Not entirely sure I’m tasting everything this hopes for.

This tastes more like a flemish sour, but when thats not on purpose, thats a problem. I think, like many others have said, this turned. Not horrible, but this is odd and wrong. No real hops or anything. Just sour.

Bottle. Pours dark with little head. Had a pretty mellow taste with a bit of chocolate. Not the best black lager I’ve had, but ot bad.
