The Duck-Rabbit Schwarzbier is a refreshing summer lager (sometimes referred to as a “black pils”). In true Duck-Rabbit fashion, we’ve made ours extra schwarzy! It’s very dark and quite roasty. Lots of Hallertau hops give this brew an authentic German character.

Bottle. What a wonderful beer. The best one from Duck-Rabbit. Deep almost black in color with a pleasant roasted nature.

Aroma of dark malts, caramel, nuts, some dark chocolate, coffee. Flavour is malty and roasty with some hop bitterness in the finish. Surprisingly refreshing and tasty.

Crazy upfront oatmeal and malt notes. Bit thin afterwards but easy to drink.

In a tulip glass. Almost black opaque creamy beer with chocolate malt nose. Roasted grains, some caramel and chocolate notes in the taste. Mildly bitter finish.

Single bottle apparently date notched 9/2016 into a tulip. A: Pours 1/2" of thick tan foam atop a solid black body. Good retention and sheets of lace. S: Herbal hops and toffee. A bit of chocolate. T: Strong roasty taste of bitter chocolate ending with faint toffee sweetness. M: Light clean and smooth textured with a powdery coating finish. O: Pretty good but not a favorite style. No points deducted but I hate DR’s tacky dating method.

Shared 12 oz. bottle. Pours almost black with tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, with mild chocolate and coffee notes. Similar tastes, with a hint of smoke and nuts. Some creaminess, but perhaps a little thin-bodied overall. Mild bitterness. Nicely done.
