pale for a schwarz, clear auburn with a irregular off-white head. Coffee grains and dirty soil earthiness. Very grainy palate, watery and a bit bland. Total void in the finish, slight herbs and nothing else, light bodied, moderate carbonation, average stuff..

Tap at The Yardhouse. Brown pour wtih a small head. Aroma is very light and mostly malt driven. Some light nuts also are noticeable. Flavor is pretty damn boring. Light nuttiness and malts with nothing to stand out and get excited about.

It says "schwarzbier" on the green bottle, but it’s definitely a dunkel inside. It pours dark, but brown, not black. Small white head. It’s got a sweet, sweet roasted malt aroma with some nuttiness. Same with the watery taste. Clean finish. Pretty uninteresting.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
11.2 ounce bottle from Wine Warehouse in Charlottesville, VA. US Schwarzbier label. The green bottle with an unmarked end date scares me. Pours a clear dark brownish red color with a medium tan head. Decent head retention and lacing. Aroma of sweet malts, grain and raisin. Taste is toasted malts, grain, coffee, dark fruits. Thin bodied.
