3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 14/20
Grainy and bready aroma, like pumpernickel. Cola brown, clear, thick yellow head, some lacing. Bready and slightly sweet, the impression of raisins is present but not obvious. Mouthfeel is watery. Hearty yet very quaffable. Pairs well with salami and summer sausages. Good example of the style.

Pours a deep mahogany with off-white head. Toasted grains, chocolate, and caramel. Smells great, just what you want from a dark German. The taste is a little off, starts off sweet and grainy, but has a bitter (almost metallic finish). I think this one might have been sitting in the fridge a little bit too long. Will have to try it again fresh.

Deep dark amber colored with little yellow head. Caramelly and chocolaty aroma with some roastiness, thin perfumy tone also here. Medium bodied. Flavor is also nicely chocolaty with some vegetables, aftertaste dries with some yeasty note. Some cookie in aftertaste with grains and thin roastiness. Good one, though more like a dunkel than schwarzbier for me.

Bottle (courtesy by joss): Deep amber coloured, small, a bit lacing, off-white head; dark-malty, roast-malty nose, yes, but also fruity notes combined with a herbal hoppiness; sweetish (-malty) flavour, slightly bitter, light to medium bodied; drier malty-bitter finish with a tinge of resinous hops. Unusual, but well drinkable Bier........
