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, $2.00 from Wine Warehouse, Charlottesville. Pours really dark with a small tan head. Light fruit with bread, malts, molasses, and caramel in the nose... has a similar taste, minus the fruit and adding a bit of chocolates. Tasty!

Big black pour but no sediment on the bottom of the bottle. Smell is decent dark beer, no ill olfactories. No head to speak of. Quite burned initial taste impressions. Almost over the top bitter but never gets there. Long bitter finish that resembles the chewing of old campfire coals from last week. Charcoal burned meat in there too. Decent amount of carbonation. A little more personality than I was expecting in a schwarz, but hey, this is TDR schwarz!

Bottle from TheCheeseMan, thanks! Deep dark brown color. Roast, malt and lots of milk chocolate in the aroma. Medium to full bodied. Roast, hints of ash and lots of nesquick in the flavor. Tasty brew.

A tall dense head of tan floats over this very dark, almost opaque brew that has just a touch of garnet at the edges. Dry dusty cocoa powder malt aroma. Some chocolate in the flavor, slightly bitter, smooth. Medium body.

Sampled on draft at Smokin Joes this beer poured a black color with a small tan head. The aroma was sweetish, tangy, mildly bitter and had a touch of malted milk. The flavor was bitter, dry and roasty with a touch of coffee and nut. The finish was long, dry and roasty. Fairly full bodied. Nice.

Moderately strong coffe and oak nose. Cola colored with no head. Uncomplicated flavor of charred oak. Bark finish. Flat soda mouthfeel. Pretty straightforward, nothing outstanding.
