Draught at the brewpub. It’s a black/brown beer with a creamy head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, caramel and coffee. The flavour has notes of roasted malt, coffee, dry citrus and caramel. The body, balance and harmony in this beer is outstanding, and it’s the best schwarzbier I ever had, truly nice! I could drink a lot more of this stuff, than I did that nice evening in the beginning of September 2008, but the next morning I were glad I didn’t ;)

(6/22/08) Draught at Gasthaus & Gosebrauerei Bayerischer Bahnhof in Leipzig. Black color with a medium beige-light brown head. Aroma of roasted malt, some coffee and vanilla hints. Sweet and roasty flavor with some caramel and some coffee. Medium-bodied.

On tap at the brewery. The aroma is very malty, smoky. The flavor is malty, quite monotonous. The beer is somehow boring.

Draft at the brewery.

Pours dark dark black with a light tan head. Mellow roasty nose, burnt coffee, roasty grain, and apple in the flavor, thin mouthfeel. It’s a nice beer, but I just keep thinking about the gose...

Medium beige creamy head with larger bubbles. Opaque black body goes dark hazy brown at the edges. Light peppery, caramelly aroma. Taste is light, clean, roasty malts with burnt notes. Some caramel. Smooth, velvety. Dry aftertaste. Very nice. (0.3l on tap.)
