Tap at a Doma Doma izakaya. Dark brown creamy golden head. Aroma is bit roasty, bit creamy. Decent enough. Taste is similar, quite malty, roast again, touch of choc. Quite thick and creamy. Pretty decent. Premium malts is my macro of choice and both are decent enough. Not wildly exciting, but solid enough to not mind drinking a load of in an izakaya.

Pours dark, black, with a fluffy light brown head. Looks tasty. Nose has some cocoa dust, light chocolate and roast, blackberries. Taste has cocoa, dust and soft creamy body. Bit watery and basically flavours are short and muted. Abrupt finish. Drinks smooth and starts nice but lacks deeper character as a whole.

35 cl can. Very dark brown color, almost black, however clear. Short thick creamy brownish head. Aroma of toasted malts, oats/cornflakes, burnt wood, a bit of charcoal and tobacco, a vague fruity note. Taste is flattish, sweetish, a little balanced. Fluffy texture, smooth finish. Ok schwarzie.

Suntory Premium Malt’s Dark, 5.5%, is a schwarzbier that pours a very dark cola brown with a beige hand with lacing that clings to the sides of the glass. The nose is soft chocolate with a mild nutty bite. Fairly thin bodied, the taste is mild chocolate, a bit of nuts plus some roasty notes. Decent.

dark brown with a tan head. Lightly roasted malts, some caramel, and cocoa in the aroma. Medium bodied. Flavor has some roasted malts, some molasses, light fruits, and a touch of cocoa. A really nice beer. Easy to drink but with plenty of character (for a macro). I’ve had copious amounts of this one.

Draught at the Hankyu Beer Garden in Osaka. Rich black color, nose of chocolate, caramel, roasted malts. Relatively nice flavor of chocolate, dark malts. Flavorful and well-balanced. Not anything fantastic, but very good for a Japanese major brewer. Far better than in the can.
