COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This is a traditional Bavarian Schwarzbier style with a deep color and a smooth rich flavor. Specially roasted malts give the black color and mild roastiness to this beer while Munich, Caramel, and Honey malts add depth and character to the malt flavor. Moderately hopped with noble aroma varieties to achieve a perfect balance and a clean finish this beer is a perfect complement to smoked, grilled, and roasted foods, flavorful meats and cheeses or chocolate desserts.

yngwie (9177) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - MAY 31, 2009
Can, courtesy of Papsoe. It pours a clear, dark brown body under a small, beige head. Dried fruits, roasted malts and some wet cardboard in the aroma. Sweet, chocolate flavor with some roasted malts, and a roasted bitterness towards the end. The finish is a bit more coffeeish in the bitterness. Medium body, sweetish, with a nice carbonation. A quite decent and drinkable beer, but nothing more than that. (090514)
