Bottle from Asda. Dark brown in colour, with a thin, beige, head and moderate carbonation. A pleasant dark lager, with some robust and bready dark malts, touch of brown sugar and plenty of hops, leading to a toasty finish. Very good.

Bottle at home picked up from ASDA. A clear nut brown coloured pour with a tidy mid tan head. Aroma is sweet nutty brown bread, toasted nuts, toasted brown bread. Flavour is composed of toasted brown bread, nutty malts, ash, bitter roast.. Bit one dimensional. Palate is semi sweet, rounded, gassy , high carbonation. Why on earth is this top 50 for style?

On tap at Singer Tavern Finsbury Square. Black beer very dark brown. Lasting tan head. Some dark malt. Over carbonated. Dwrk syrup on the aroma. Some treacle molasses in mouth. Ok. Could take or leave this one.

Not sure where Dunkel/Tmavy ends and Schwarzbier begins, but what the hell. Regardless, Insulated drinks well, mixing a heavy roasted coffee maltiness with the easygoing fresh-fruit tang of a traditional Lager. Estery as all hell yet manageable thanks to the dark malt bitterness, and the dry finish eases any Euro-malt sweet corn doldrums. Surprisingly tasty.
