Jan 4, 2010 2009 Tap. A mediocre schwarzbier. Light aroma of chocolate malts. Appears dark, like engine oil with little head. Tastes like a watered down version of Shiner Black, which in my opinion is already not the industry standard for schwarzbiers. Stick with Kotzritzer, if you’re in a jam.

Dec 31, 2009 Evidently I enjoyed this one better than most. The taste was of roasted malt with a hint of chocolate. The finish was bitter and mine was highly carbonated. I thought it was decent for a beer of this style, but it doesn’t stand out from other offerings.

Dec 21, 2009 Bottle [12oz] shared with HogTownHarry & garthicus -- c/o garthicus. Pours ruby-brown with a small fizzy off-white head. Aroma of grain and smoke along with vegetal notes. Dull watery flavour is lightly roasty and papery along with a hint of smoke. Thin bodied. Meh, pretty boring.

Dec 1, 2009 Bottle courtesy Rollinhard. Pours slightly thin, very black with little head. Nice roasted grain, coffee aroma. Light body, some roasted grain, coffee with a nice dry roasted finish. Decent brew and would be good as a dark alternative in a warm climate.

Nov 18, 2009 Bottle: Clear dark brown color with a very thin head, almost no carbonation. Nose of nutty light roast, some husk and bread. Thin flavor with more nutty malts and husk. Tame body and a tinge of sassafras in the tail. Thin body but the roast is about right.

Oct 30, 2009 Bottle ( 12oz ). Shared by garthicus with me and blankboy. Dark brick red with a small frothy (everything’s frothy lately!) off-white head. Burnt roast grain aroma, unpleasantly vegetal and dry ... slightly smokey. Taste is mild and dry, sweet roast up-front but a dry sourness lurking ... not too good. Watery, still, with a stale, papery aftertaste. Not great.
