Kapuziner Weissbier Schwarz

Pours almost black with no head. Fruit in the nose and more subtle flavor, also some chocolate malt and slight caramel. Dry finish.

From a 0.5L bottle purchased locally. Aroma is a little clove and fruit, with some dark malt. Color is a dark brown with dark red highlights. A big beige head. Taste is fruity and malty. Not too much yeast character in there. Easy drinking, but not too complex. Dry finish with a little toast lingering.

0,5 liter fles. Het smaakt niet naar de typische schwartzbieren uit duitsland. Veel milder van smaak. Ook proef ik niet de weissbier.

Bottle from BevMo Mission Valley. Pours a cloudy dark brown with a small beige head. Roasted malts and black cherries on the nose. Dark and malty flavor that is slightly sweet.

Poured a cloudy dark brown color with generous tan head that lasted for quite some time. Aroma was of chocolate and a bit of smoke. Aroma was of roasted malts and chocolate. Mouthfeel was pleasant. I found this to be a tasty beer and at 5.4% abv, I believe I could drink quite a few.

A good beer, but one that I had higher expectations for... Pours a gorgeous dark brown and has a quickly-dissipating head. Looked better than i tasted, unfortunately. A bit on the flat side, and probably was in transit for a bit. I liked it, but didn’t love it.

Bottle. Very dark in color, pours nice, very thin and drinkable, you’re not gonna blow out any taste buds either.
