I thought it is a british ale and not a german brewn beer. But it is a good dunkel not too bitter. I enjoyed it.

Fairly subtle and boring but still beats a typical American macro. Dark dark amber appearance, thin head, gingerbread and toffee aroma, caramel and bread palate. Mild hops at the end.

Bottle w/ the Schwarzbier labe. Poured a dark brown; Aroma was not too strong, with some roasted malt and chocolate. Flavor was about the same. Find most of the style about like this; good and drinkable, but nothing great at all.

On tap at Tjelsundfergen, OSlo. Fairly light, fairly sweet, rather watery. A bit nutty. A fine thirst-quencher on a Summer day, but it is not much above the ordinary.

On tap@Tjeldsund, Oslo. Thin beige head over a cloudy, dark amber body. Limited aroma of medium sweet dark malts, notes of hayish hops and metal. Taste is lightly malty-sweet, light roasty , clean and rather sourish. Low hop level. Light to medium body. Feels a little watered down in the mouth. Short, slightly sourish, slightly bitter finish.

11.2 oz bottle. Poured a medicinal looking reddish/brown with a small frothywhite head and a flat watery body. Aroma was sweet with a slight bit of skunkiness thanks to it’s green bottle. The palate was rather watery and even though there was some carbonation this beer almost seemed to be flat? Weird huh. Flavor was nothing special, a nice maltiness with a mild hop balance and a slight touch of the skunkiness snuck in there as well. Nothing special about this beer other then the bad bottle color choice and the fact that it’s renamed for America.

Drank on tap at j-betskis. Decent beer kind of weak, I expected more of a pucnh.

Pours a darker brown color with an off-white head. Aroma is of toffee, caramel, sweet malts, some dark fruits, and a slight hint of nuts. Flavor starts of with a slight hint of roasted malt with the dark fruits and finishes with toffee and sweet malts. Not much of a lingering flavor. Slightly watery on the finish. This brew is alright but there are plenty out there that are better.
