Commercial Description:
This is a traditional German style dark lager beer. Flavors of chocolate or coffee are common, but usually subtle. Just because the beer is dark, doesn’t mean that the flavors are. Expect the beer to be opaque and black, as the name would imply.

Lightly toasted coffee, very dark brown, small white head. Creamy mocha coffee, some dark fruits there too. Sharp roast bite in the finish wraps it up nicely.

Bottle poured into a dimple mug produced a finger worth of tan head that faded to lace. The brew was a black larger so guess the color... yup you are right. Big aroma of roasted malts and a light smokiness hits you, as you sit by the glass. The flavor is roast forward as well (coffee and bitter chocolate), but the feel of the beer comes into play as you drink it. This is nice and light in your mouth, so you know it’s a lager. This one has a sweet finish in the flavor. It is a pleasure to drink. This is my first Schwarzbier and I know it won’t be my last Serving type: bottle

12oz from suzyg. Hazed cola brown with little beige head. Nutty, cola, caramel corn, pecans, a touch of smoke and some slight floral. Lightly sweet malt, cola, apple, cherry, rose floral, mocha coffee. Not really traditional, but very drinkable and would welcome it again.

355mL courtesy of Santa!!! You rock! I had at least four ISO posts for this beer- I totally missed it’s release this summer. Pours a deep brown with ruby highlights. Looks fairly black in the glass. Big, two-finger, tan, rocky head with very good retention and lacing. Aroma is rich cocoa, dark chocolate, chocolate-covered cherries, some roast, campfire, dates, earth, peat, and giant dried tobacco leaves. Taste is roasty, unsweetened chocolate, some weak coffee. Dry graininess in the finish. Very smooth lager. Medium bodied. Sessionable.

Pours black with some brownish highlights. Tan head that disappears quickly. Aroma of coffee, licorice, and chocolate. Decent lacing. Flavors of licorice, coffee and chocolate. This is really good for a lager!
