Getreidig-malziger Antrunk, trocken. Noch während dem Antrunk beginnt die Getreidgkeit stärker zu werden, die Trockenheit legt sich etwas, das Bier wird vollmundiger. Während das Bier röstmalzig wird kommt eine kurze Kräuternote auf, die unauffällig wieder verschwindet, das Malz wird dabei weiter stärker und röstmalziger, so endet das Bier röstmalzig-hopfig. Mildes, aber leckeres Schwarzbier. Test vom 26.10.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,11,11,10,8,11 - 10,50
