Bottle from the brewery. Deep mahogany pour with a smell dark khaki head that quickly fades. Huge cocoa and espresso nose with hints of vanilla and roasted nuts. Lightly sweet toffee start and a medium light bitter coffee and chocolate middle extending to a quite dry finish. Flavour is much more subdued than the nose. Medium slick mouth with active carbonation.

Draft - Roast malts and some coffee bean. Jet black with a beige head. Burnt toast and a light bitterness. Lighter than the smell lets on.

A dark brown schwarzebier with a thin brown head. In aroma, sweet chocolate malt with chalky notes, grassy, OK. In mouth, a bitter chocolate with chalky notes, coffee, not bad.

Draught at the brewpub
Black color, with creamy head. Mild aroma of roasted malt, some dirty water. Dry mouthfeel, roasted malt with dry dark chocolate; correct bitterness. Quite good.

Pretty good for a scharzbier, if that’s what it is. Smells a little dark and has some character. Tastes better than yer average black lager, whatever that means. Hell, last beer of night.
