ABT bier van de maand juli 2014.Een doordrinkbaar, donker en ietwat moutig ondergistend bier. Maar dan wel met een subtiele eigen twist: een klein vleugje steranijs. Smaak van Echt 2014 Schwarz lustrumbier is een eigenwijs zomerbier, wortelend in de oude tradities van de familiebrouwerijen en gebrouwen met het gevoel van nu.

(Draught at In De Wildeman, Amsterdam, 20 Aug 2014) Dark brown colour with hints of ruby. Creamy beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of caramel, dark rye bread, brown sugar and dried fruit. Malty, roasted taste with caramel, dark bread, brown sugar, raisins, prunes and a balanced spicy bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and well balanced. Nice one.

Tap @ Becoloth, small sample, served in a kleintje pils glass. Clear dark brown color, frothy brown head, almost cola. Aroma is spicy, bit roast, anise, some dark bread. Bit sweet and spicy in taste. This is supposed to be a bottom-fermented clean dark lager, but instead they add spices and loads of sweetness to give the impression of a belgian double. Dont do that.

Draught @ Bar Becoloth, Boxtel. Dark brown color with a dark red glare coming through, medium sized dense beige head that lasts for quite a while and leaves decent lacing. Aroma is exactly what you would expect from a schwarzbier: very malty, lightly earthy. Taste malts, earthy, lightly sweet, a hint of caramel, raisins and liquorice. Decent body and carbonation.

Tap. Black with off-white head. Sour fruits, acidic with some weird chemical taste. Light toasted grains with some ash. Mainly sour with light sweet touch and herbal bitter astringent finish. Light to medium bodied. Weird stuff, not really into it.

On tap at In de Wildeman. Almost black colour, beige head. Aroma is sweet, liquorice/star anise (drop), light malty, some chocolate. Flavour is sweet, malty, some star anise, cocoa, just a very light bitterness in the finish. Light-bodied. It’s not bad, but too sweet/lacks hops to be a good Schwarz.
