3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
3rd LCRBM. Caramel and malt in the aroma. Sweetish flavor with roasted malt and caramel. Nice, tasty Schwarzbier, off the beaten German track. Will do very nicely in Mittenwald after a long walk in the surrounding mountains.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
(33cl bottle) Clear, dark brown colour with a ruby shine and a big and dense light-beige foamy head. Sweet roast-malty aroma, slightly earthy with notes of toffee and bread crusts. Bitter-sweet flavour, medium to light bodied with a moderate carbonation. Roast-malty base with caramel/toffee, Blockmalz and hints of dark chocolate; bitter-sweet roasty and slightly hoppy finish with a lasting aftertaste of caramel and chocolate. Balanced and tasty brew, despite the name, it´s a Dunkel (09.VIII.09).
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle at LCRBM3. Clear red chestnut colour with thin beige head. Lots of candy sugar. It’s ok with decent malt but a little doughy. Fine, if unexciting.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
A Mes rate:
Bottle at LCRBM3. Darkish red brown with a slight off white head. Malty, lots of caramel, nice and tangy with a little alcohol. A little on the sticky side. Quite resinous. So so.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle@LCRBM. Very malty aroma. Brown color, beige head, fair lace. Sweet, chocolate, hints of vanilla, sticky mouthfeel.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Red-brown beer; small yellowish head. Breadish, sweet liqueurish nose, leaf-covered bread. Dry to sweetish taste, with a vinous-brandy finish. Potent! Very slick, alcoholwarming. Whatever this is, it has not the character of a Schwarzbier.
