...from the bottle. Dark brown\ black pour with dark tan head. Lots of roasted malts and some nuttiness. Had nice smooth flavor, was relatively creamy. Finished with roasted nut flavor, was pretty decent actually.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
A bit sweet and roasty in the aroma. This is a tad sweet but also quite thick. Very much in the schwarzbier style. Not bad, just not what I’m feeling right now.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours black, almost opaque, with a small light brown head mostly dissipating. Nose is malt and yeast. Fairly creamy on the palate, the taste dark roasted malt, with hints of chocolate and coffee. Nice tasting schwarztbier. Pairs well with mixed nuts.
3.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draft at Sugar Moms. Dark pour with minimal head. Burned toast. Not too sweet or bitter. Crisp flavor but thin palate.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Aroma is dark grains and a strong nuttiness. The flavor is caramel/toffee and very nutty, with a hint of fruit and acidity in the finish.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
bottle - Pours very dark brown with a small light tan head. It was a malty, chocolate accented aroma. The flavor is roast malt with not much more going on. It’s one dimensional to me, an okay but uninteresting medium bodied brew.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Alright, this is a good, but not great, schwarzbier. It was a gift from my girlfriend and well appreciated, but there are better black lagers out there.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Dark brown with thin tan head. Nose is pretty mild, some roast, light cocoa, molasses. Flavor is similar, some roast, lactose, minerals. Easy drinking and unoffensive, if boring.
