Even in 1895 Porter was brewed from the mountain spring in Löbau, and it was a beloved drink in the Lausitz. With our Lausitzer Porter, we successfully continue this brewing tradition.

50cl bottle shared with friends. Thin white head. Clear brown pour. Way too sweet. Artificial sweetness? Dreadful beer.

Bottle at the hotel in Berlin. Pours clear brown with a small, off-white head. Sweet, sugary fruits in the nose, with light toasty malts. Flavor is...eck, another sugar-added schwarz bier - I don’t like these. It’s cloyingly sweet, thick and syrupy with some bready toast. Light bodied with average carbonation. Sweet finish with syrupy bread, toast. Jesus. I’ll bet this shit is popular with 10-year olds. Hard for me to drink. Lyoli liked it even less than I did.

Interesting for a German dark bier. Notice is not labelled as a dunkel, but does allude tot he darkness with the "Schwarzes" on the label. They call it porter, but it closest to a Dutch Brun/Oud style. Very sweet...Poured a overly frothy head, deep dark black/brown. The initial sweetness hits you right away, letting you know this is not a typical German beer. Different from any German beer I’ve had, but would be right at home in the Netherlands. Not bad, if you are prepared for it....

8 Aug 201, I wrote this: Brown 500ml bottle, brought home from Berlin earlier this year: poured into an Abbot Ale glass tankard a month before it’s best before date. Never had a German Porter before, which is why it got bought. Looked good, lovely ruby red, deep brown body with a huge bubbley head of off white. Good carbonisation, as you could clearly see the bubbles rising through the body. The smell was of sweet molasses, too sweet in fact, that sweetness carried on into the taste, this is a fizzy malty nasty brew and a big let down. Behind the sweetness and fizz is a watery body without complexity or strength. Not at all what I was expecting, a waste of money and luggage space on the flight home!

50cl bottle pours amber with tan head. The aroma is kind of dark ester pitted fruit, a touch of sweet/tart candy and a touch of coffee and dark roasted malts. It tastes sweet and a bit sugary soda like to start with some cherry fruit and cherry candy giving way to mineral notes, and brief moments of roasted malts. Too sweet for my taste.

50cl bottle. What a total waste of money to buy this. Poured dark brown color with a thin head. Aroma is sweet caramel, flavor is a blend of sugar and sugar and the finish is somewhat harsh. Thin. Why do they destroy the beer like this?
