Thanks to jbrus for sharing this New Zealand beer. Milk chocolate and cacao in the aroma. Chocolate flavor with some blackberry. Malty. Rather thin. Long watery chocolatemilk aftertaste. A bit simple but very likeable beer.

(Bottle 50 cl) Clear, dark brown beer with a tint of orange. Small, dissipating light brown head. Smoke in the nose, smoke in the flavour atop a thinnish body. Burned, malty notes - like in a Scotch. Some underlying notes of sweetness. I’d say this comes a lot closer to a Scottish Ale. 140106

Clear dark brown color, short dying brown head. Aroma is malty, chocolat, bit coffee. Bitter, fruity, bit licorice in the taste. Quite unbalanced however and thin.

Bottle. Aroma like chocolate milk. Almost black colour, fluffy stable head. Thin and watery flavour with some mild chocolate notes. Nice enough.

Nearly black beer, but with amber hints; dirty beige head, collapsing. Creamy, coffeeish nose - a bit as the drabs of cold coffee, really. Also a Coca-Cola aroma, sweetish. Dry stout-like flavours: tobacco ash, roasted grains. Much less bready than German examples, and a lot less sweet than the nose suggested. Bit of Valerian finish. Light to medium bodied, certain slickness, quite dry. Good Schwarz, though more stoutlike, IMO, be it bottom fermented. Again, my bottle claims 4.2 % ABV only

The aroma is sweet with notes of caramel. The color is pitch black with a small off-white head. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of caramel and roasted malt. Unfortunately the body is a little light.

Bottled. Near black with huge, creamy head. Roasty and rather sweet with creamy mouthfeel. Bitter finish with notes of licorice. Well made, but not overly complex.
