Not a schwarzbier as it was described at Paradiso. Pours a clear deep red with a thin, off-white head that leaves no lace. Aroma is maraschino cherries. Taste is black cherry soda. Very easy to drink. Light-bodied. Very doppelbock like- too weak for a schwarzbier and no roast character. Not sure why that would be a "trendier" label if it’s just plain incorrect.

Tasting at The Stable. A musty and funky aroma. Dark brown in color. Flavor is fruity and more funk. Some roasted notes and coffee. An interesting beer.

Nothing too impressive here, but this beer is great on a warm night as it is extremely drinkable. Good intro to darker beers for your budweiser drinking friends.

Very mild brew here; some malty flavor without being overly strong, roasted earthy dirt flavor, mouthfeel is very flat without any appreciable head after a few minutes.

This pours a dark brown with some light head which quickly dissipates. A dark malty aroma is present, though its not significant. Taste has a significant malty sweetness to it, with some light notes of coffee coming through on the aftertaste. I also get a lot of bread dough in this one. The carbonation is rather rough on the palate, taking away a good bit from making this beer easily drinkable.

UPDATED: JUL 18, 2010 Bottle 0.33l Pours a small white head which disappears quickly. Color is darkbrown (coke-brown maybe). Aroma is very soft and malty, some toffee, caramel, coffee and it has a light bitter aftertaste (getting stronger when warmer). Low carbonation, light to medium body. Very drinkable.

bottle, danke nach Bochum. Clear dakr colour with a mid-sized off-white head. Malty, hints of caramel and chocolate. Nice.

It’s dark brown with a huge, creamy head. The aroma has notes of cabbage, malt and caramel. The flavor is slightly sweet and it has notes of malt, caramel and slightly dry citrus. Overall a bit on the thin side.
