First released more than 30 years ago, Faubourg Blackened Voodoo is a delicious dark lager crafted in the traditions of the great German dunkels that inspired it. Our brewers skillfully balance five premium roasted barley malts with two hop varieties to create a dark, mysterious brew known for its bewitching character and magical spirit.

Aroma of grassy hop with some toasted malt. Dark reddish amber color with a very impressive beige head. Medium body with creamy carbonation. Flavor is smooth, a bit of roasted malt (not toasted), with a decent amount of hop bitter. I can imagine a touch of chocolate. Finish is fairly dry and somewhat bittered. It’s not black. It doesn’t seem to be a schwarzbier in flavor. It’s pleasant, but isn’t it an amber lager?

Nice yeasty aroma, clean and fresh. Taste starts out strong then fades rapidly to a thinner palate. Creamy carbonated texture. Has a roasty feel about it. Medium malt finish. The appearance has a yellowish tinge to a mostly dark brown beer. IMHO, overall, quite mellow and acceptable for a schwartz!

Bottle. Sweet caramel malt aroma. Red-amber color with giant beige head. Slightly sweet caramel malt flavor with a hint of cherry. In the 80s, this was one of the best US beers out there. Still a decent beer.

This bottle was brewed in the EU. Pours dark brown with absolutely no head, although the beer itself was rather fizzy. Dried fruit in the aroma and a similar taste, quite nice malt flavours. Practically no aftertaste. The bottle I had was a few months out of date, so perhaps it wasn’t the best example to judge the beer on.

Röstmalziger Geruch. Röstmalziger, aber nicht sehr intensiver Antrunk. Süßlich und hopfig wird das Bier im Mittelteil, eine Alkoholnote scheint kurzzeitig als Unterton zu erscheinen. Der Nachgeschmack ist eher lasch von einem leicht malzig-herben Ton regiert. Sticht weder positiv noch negativ wirklich hervor. Test vom 17.12.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 7,10,10,7,12,9 - 8,95

Bottled at RBESG-06, GTN. Clear, dark brown, with a beige head. Roasted aroma with some chocolate and mocha. The flavor is quite wead, with roasted malt, chocolate and some coffee. Thin and watery body. Starts good, ends boring. (060826)
