The Aromas are dark malt and roast. Flavors are similar to nose, on the street side, strong carbonation and a mildly bitter finish. Not bad, not great.

12 ounce bottle from Flanagan’s Appleton. Dark brown, large foamy tan head, decent retention. Aroma of strong roasted malt and a bit of smoke. The taste is roasted malts, dark chocolate, a bit of plum. Thin, mild lingering bitterness. Solid.

Draft at OF. Opaque black with a respectable, lasting head. Nice roasty bittersweet chocolate aroma. Very nice. Full out flavor yet a medium bodied watery finish. Solid specialty malt bill. Creamy with a borderline lactic touch. True to style and right on.

Beer #23 at GTMW ’09. They called it "Dark Helmet #3" when poured. Dark beer, head starts brown at point of beer contact, but is quite white at the top. After a note of root beer to start, the taste tends more toward a stout in taste, with dark roasts, but no chocolate or coffee. Goes down very nice.

A solid schwarz that drinks more like a porter - medium-bodied, with a strong roasty character and bitter chocolate flavor - a bit of coffee and sweet cream flavor - the sweetness gets stronger in the finish, but the roasted flavor keeps it in balance - quite good.
