A traditional Schwarzbier, sometimes called a “Black Pils” in Germany. The Black Duke is not heavy or overly roasted like a stout. Medium bodied with flavors of caramel and coffee with some chocolate undertones balanced by German noble hops.

Part of the Brewzzi Sampler tray - all pours were in small flute tasting glasses, approx 6 oz (healthy pours). Pour is clear ruby light brown with an off white head. Aroma is minimal light fruit sweet and malt. Very reserved nose. Taste is roast malt, along with the cracker and biscuit malt. Finish picks up sweetness, and ends relatively clean. Palatee is thin to medium bodied, slightly below average carbonation, ad a lingering sweet roast aftertaste. Somewhat interesting beer.

Poured up on tap at the Boca brewpub clear amber with wafer thin off white head. The aroma comes across as somewhat bready first with some malt roastiness and faint hops to follow up. The taste is roasty to nutty malts up front with a bit of bread to follow. And behind those notes are malt sweetness and some pine hops. It ends with tasty roasted malts bringing it to the dryer side for the finish.

Draught at the Boca Raton location. Odd. The Boca Raton location sells this as a munich dark, and that’s what it is in my book. Nut brown, no head. Roasty malt aroma. Lightly buttery with clean, rounded mouthfeel and medium body. Somewhat raisiny. Salty, roasty finish. A well made dunkel.
