Brauerei Schwarzes Kreuz Reviews

Koelschtrinker	3.1 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Herber Antrunk, in dem das Aroma alleine steht und auf nachzügler wartet.Später wenig würzig, der Gesamteindruck ist aber positiv. Recht süffig, außer der Herbe sticht zum Ende noch der Hopfen hervor. Angenehm frisches Bier, urig! 11/10/10/11//10 Saturday, May 7, 2011
chriso	2.1 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier From bottle at the Pigs Ear Beer Festival, London on 6 December 2006 at 4.2%. Coppery amber colour. Yuck. Big butterscotch aroma. I hate that. Malty flavours – nuts, toffee and doughy bread. Tastes rather better than it smells but still not too good. Monday, April 18, 2011
Fin	3.4 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier On tap at Brauerei Scwarzes Kreuz, Eggolsheim, during Fin and Loz’s cycle ride around villages to the South and South East of Bamberg, Germany 19-06-10 Copper in colour with a white head and busy carbonation. There is some toffee in the mouth and a steady sweetness. This is quite, quite different from the really refreshing Vollbier and Lager that we had at Witzgall, its nice but a bit chewy at times.

KimJohansen	3.4 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Cloudy amber with a medium beige head. Sweet malty aroma with caramel and grassy hops. Malty flavour with caramel and grass hops. Quite full. Tuesday, October 6, 2009
MiP	3.2 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Draught at the brewpub. Good malty aroma. Clear dark amber colour. Big stable rocky tan head. The flavour is mildly malty. Tastes a little watery and has high carbonation, but is clean. Saturday, August 22, 2009
Oakes	3.7 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier On gravity at the keller. Vaguely malty, caramelly aroma. Malty palate with light earth and caramel. Fresh and clean, a good country dark. Simple, well-balanced and refreshing. Tuesday, August 18, 2009
Beershine	3.5 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Draft @ keller. dark vollbier though hard to discern exact color in krug. Nice head leaves ring lace. The aroma is mild with good mineral and asphalt notes. the palate is slick with low carbonation. Nice roast here, leaves nice toasty tastes. Clean and drinkable. Subtle chocolate and minerals emerge in layers. Not bursting with flavor but is subtle, enjoyable, and grows on me. Monday, August 17, 2009
omhper	3.9 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Draught at the brewpub. Clear orange/nut brown with creamy head. Perfumy nose with some sugar and roasty malt. Medium bodied with rounded inviting mouthfeel. A bit soapy and caramelly with grassy bitterness. Well balanced. Monday, August 11, 2008
kappldav123	3.7 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier The bottle looks really good, the beer in the glass also. Quite dark, nice head. Tastes sourish-fruity, very interesting. Finish a little bit malty. Really good beer! Monday, June 9, 2008
Maria	2.2 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier From tap at the brewpub. Dark golden with a huge, dens head. The aroma has notes of caramel and malt. The flavour has a light sweetness, notes of caramel, malt and a light grapefruit-like bitterness. IMO it’s a bit out of balance and the flavour is quickly gone, but the bitterness lasts a bit longer.

MoritzF	3.5 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier (bottle, bought at the brewery, filled, capped and labelled in front of me & draught at the Bierkeller) Clear, copper colour with a short off-white foamy head. Sweet, slightly toasty and nutty nose with subtle honeyish fruity notes, toffee, a touch of liquorice spice and well-balanced herbal hops. Aromatic toasty malt-accented taste with toffee, honey and a present herbal blend. Sweet-bitter, toasty and herbal hoppy, almost lingering finish. Well-balanced Franconian Lager. One should try to get it fresh, at best from the tap at the brewery or the Bierkeller. Monday, July 23, 2007
duff	2 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Bottle. This has some full on diaceetyl. sweet and buttery. with grainy, bready malt notes also noticed. Not very good. Friday, March 16, 2007
SilkTork	2.1 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Bottle Pigs Ear. Diacetyl. Other than the butter pop-corn this is a dull, pale beer of little character. Not offensive - just boring. Sunday, December 31, 2006
harrisoni	2.2 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Bottle at Pig’s Ear BF. Copper colour with a bit of haze. Thin off white head. Aroma has a bit of diacetyl. Some nuttiness. Bit of toffee. Not a big fan of this. Monday, December 18, 2006
rauchbier	3.4 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Draught, at the brewpub, October 2006. Bronze, moderate thin off white head and good condition. Pleasant but muted caramel toffee maltiness in the nose, quite hop bitter in the mouth with a balancing full bodied toffee maltiness, and a lingering sweet toffee finish with a slight burnt toasty bitterness.

maeib	3.3 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Bottled - Pigs Ear BF. Hmm interesting how pivnizub says it’s straw colour yet bierkoning’s and our bottle was amber! THis is slightly hazy and it had a beige bubbly head. The aroma is fruity with some toffee and diacetyl. The taste is excellent. Fruity with good hops and some dry malty flavours. Very well balanced and very tasty. Tuesday, December 12, 2006
bierkoning	2.5 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier Bottle, bought at the brewery. Yes, this very much local brewery bottles his beer. 4,5% on the label. Amber color. Caramelly, buttery aroma. A clear barnyard smell. Medium bodied. Sweetish, malty, caramelly flavor. A somewhat dirty palate. Far from perfect beer, but you probabaly have to taste it from tap, like Pivnizub did. But being the designated driver, that sadly wasn’t possible. Monday, May 30, 2005
pivnizub	3.2 Schwarzes Kreuz Vollbier From the tap (in the brewery-garden "Keller"): Straw coloured, white, thin but long lasting head; hoppy (herbal) nose, creamy texture, low carbonation; full-bodied flavour with a smooth dry and bitter finish. Very franconian.....O.K: Sunday, May 29, 2005
