Jul 14, 2008 Bottle courtesy of OKBeer -- thanks man, I owe you a beer! Pours a deep dark brown, almost black, with a large lasting creamy tan head -- nice! Aroma has lots of roast and smoke along with some chocolate, light hops, molasses and coffee -- smells great. Flavour of roasted caramel malt, peat, dark chocolate, green hops and alcohol. Long roasty bitter finish. Creamy mouthfeel. Medium bodied (+). Simply fantastic -- well done Garrison!

Jul 7, 2008 500ml bottle from mullet2007! Thanks!! Nose of bigtime coffee, roastiness, and chocolate; clear very dark brown with a small tan head; flavor is coffee, rich creamy chocolate, and a very light background bitterness. Finish has a very light bitterness combined with some chocolate. Mouthfeel is very creamy. As good as most Impy stouts

May 23, 2008 botle from mullet2007, thanks!!
jet black pour, nice big foamy beige head. Aroma is quite roasty, and full of chocolate, and coffee. Wow, if i didnt know this was a lager, i would bet the farm on it being a stout. Excellent lager, easily the most flavourful lager i have ever tried, very roasty, and full of stout like flavours, nice stuff!

May 3, 2008 Bottle. Nearly black dark brown color with small, tan-colored head and some thick lacing. Aromas of mild hops, tangy molasses and toast. Feels very nice on the tongue leaving a nice smoky aftertaste. Slightly warming due to the extra alcohol. Very nice.

Apr 14, 2008 Bottle 鸴ml). Shared with garthicus, bottle courtesy of tupalev. Black-ruby pour, solid tan head. Milky, deep roast aroma - coffee and dark chocolate - with herbal/mint hop bitteness, some light molasses. Taste - drier, more cocoa and dry bitterness, hint of tart persimmon. Fairly thick and silky mouthfeel, lightly astringent, long deep roast bitter-smooth finish. Solid, excellent schwarz. Thanks, Jeff!

Apr 14, 2008 Shared with HogTownHarry - Harrys bottle, thanks!: Jet black/brown - tiny caramel coloured head. Tan leather, shoe polish aroma, spicy too, some dark fruit. Flavour: Smooth as silk, spicy, milky too, such flavour, zero alcohol burn, so well hidden. Just a super little beer and only my second Schwarbier. Mmmmm
