COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Danish: Som navnet fortæller,er der tale om en sort øl, som har fået sin flotte sorte farve af ristede malte. Schwarz Bier er ligesom en pilsner undergæret og er karakteriseret ved en let drikkelighed, som man måske ikke forventer af en mørk øl. Smag og duft præges af de mørke maltes ristning. Sødme fra malten anes, men det er ikke en sød øl. Humlen gør sit til at bitterheden også melder sig. Schwarz bier er en øl, der passer virkelig godt til mad fx til god gammeldags oksesteg. Men er også dejlig, hvis man bare er tørstig. Kategorien Schwarz Bier stammer oprindeligt fra delstaterne Sachsen og Thüringen i Østtyskland og har rødder langt tilbage i tiden, hvor meget øl var mørkt. I gamle dage mente man, at denne sorte øl var særlig velegnet for ammende kvinder og syge, der skulle blive raske.Vi mener nu, at Schwarz Bier er godt for de fleste. I dag er der ændret på forholdet mellem restsukker og alkoholprocent, hvilket giver det lettere pilsneragtige præg. Vi synes, det kunne være spændende at være med til at udbrede denne "gamle", historiske og velsmagende øl i Danmark, hvorfor vi gik igang med at brygge Schwarz Bier. Schwarz Bier brygges om vinteren i januar/februar.

Maria (8586) - Thisted, DENMARK - DEC 13, 2007
Holstebro Øl Festival April 01.2006. Black/brown beer with a pretty good head. At first I think of a dunkel, but then more full notes of roasted malt, caramel and a bit of coffee turn up. It’s an OK schwartzbier, and luckily not too sweet. Could have more body though...

Rastacouere (5923) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - NOV 18, 2007
Not that dark, deep brown appearance, paler than coffee. More toasty than roasty, quite sweet in fact with brown sugar, fruity and biscuity notes. Sweet in mouth and certainly simplistic, but drying out nicely enough to remain drinkable. Not quite what one expects in a schwarzbier, this is a sweet and rather smooth example avoiding the usual focus on roast, but for soft dry chocolate undertones. I did not get any sourness.
