Jan 9, 2009 Solid schwarzbier. Medium roasted malt flavor. Lager yeast flavor. Black with a short, thick head. It does have good palate, very smooth and a surprisingly thick mouthfeel. Thanks to Skyview for another one.

Dec 27, 2008 Updated: Jan 7, 2009On draught at the brewery tap room in Wausau, Wisconsin. Served very cold so allow time to warm up a wee bit. Pours a dark cola brown brew with a creamy off-white head that has some nice retention and excellent lacing. Aroma of toasted dark malt, some flowery hops, a touch of chocolate and some toffee. Taste is medium bodied, smooth, with flavors of toasted dark malt, some bread crust, chocolate and toffee. Finish has a slight metallic character but still has plenty of toasted dark malt aftertaste that slowly disappears. The brewery had a naming contest of this schwarzbier at the time I tried this. Update: The beer was named Midnight Star on December 30.
