Feb 14, 2008 From long long long ago when my dad brought home a "beers of the world" pack. This was in it. What I remember was swamping, black, undrinkable sludge.

Feb 11, 2008 dark ruby with a thin off white head. Aroma of malt, maple syrup, honey, and hops. Flavor is caramel, toffee, burnt malt, and bread. Finishes slightly bitter, a little over carbonated.

Feb 9, 2008 Aroma of grassy hop with some toasted malt. Dark reddish amber color with a very impressive beige head. Medium body with creamy carbonation. Flavor is smooth, a bit of roasted malt (not toasted), with a decent amount of hop bitter. I can imagine a touch of chocolate. Finish is fairly dry and somewhat bittered. It’s not black. It doesn’t seem to be a schwarzbier in flavor. It’s pleasant, but isn’t it an amber lager?

Feb 7, 2008 [Bottle] Pours clear amber with a small off-white head. A lot of toasted malt with some yeast in the aroma. Taste is also toasted malt with a hint of chocolate and caramel. Medium mouthfeel. Definitely drinkable, but nothing special.

Feb 6, 2008 Nice yeasty aroma, clean and fresh. Taste starts out strong then fades rapidly to a thinner palate. Creamy carbonated texture. Has a roasty feel about it. Medium malt finish. The appearance has a yellowish tinge to a mostly dark brown beer. IMHO, overall, quite mellow and acceptable for a schwartz!

Feb 5, 2008 Updated: Jul 8, 2008Pours a beautiful copper, tan head. Not much aroma really and the body is really spritzy. Almost like a soda. Not too much in the way of flavor. Not bad, but nothing to really write home about.

Feb 5, 2008 Pours beautifully, but, dude…this smells like dirty socks. Flavor is decently roasted, but it just seems a bit odd to me. It tastes dirty as well, in a way. As it warms it seems to be a bit more even, though. Still though a bit too live and leafy. Feel is nice. Just overall it seems to lack balance. Decent, but not a mind blower. Might be interesting on cask.
