500 ml bottle. Pours nearly black with a hint of red and a beige head. Aroma is roasted malts, coffee and liquorice. Roasted malts and coffee dominate the flavour, aftertaste is lightly burned. Very pleasant mouthfeel.

Jul 17, 2008 I loved this.
eminantly drinkable yet utterly complex and compeling.
perhaps lacking a tiny bit of body and mouth feel but that is nit-picking.
Great chocolately, roasted notes with a hint of smoke.
Beutifully balanced and a great example of an underated style

Jun 28, 2008 Dark ruby, almost black with a fluffy beige head. Roasted malty aroma, nice cocoa and little dry fruits. Flavor is burned malts, coffee, ashy wood, rum?, bitter cocoa. Smooth, not too thick palate. A lovely Schwarzbier, very soft.

Jun 13, 2008 Nice full bodied malt flavor. There is a distinct smoky aroma and taste. Smooth drinking.

May 27, 2008 Excellent Schwarzbier having a deep ruby, almost black, colour. The roasted malts give pronounced coffee and chocolate flavour notes with the initial bitterness nicely complemented by the hoppiness that kicks in with the finish.

May 19, 2008 bottle. Aroma of liquorice, coffee, and malt. Pours a black colour beer. Taste is hoppy, malty and roasted malt. Some carbonation. Much like a porter, full of flavour.
