0.50l bottle, courtesy of CanCrusher. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, caramel and flowers. Pours pitch black color with thin soapy light brown head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts light sweet mildly roasted malt, citrus and grass, following is caramelly, nutty, umami and faint dried fruity, mouthfeel is smooth, while finish is average bitter. Medium body, slick texture and average carbonation in palate. Decent schwarzie…

500 ml can from the Kaldea set. Nose is chocolate and caramel, dark bread, herbal hops. Very dark brown, almost black, with a medium brown head. Malty, bready, not too sweet, dark chocolate, light caramel, slightly fruity, touch of licorice, cola. A touch roasted. Not a traditional dunkel but ok.

Can, an Aldi/ Kalea box. Dark brown with a fading cm of tan head. Aroma of coffee and mild roast with some caramel and spices. Quite a bit of body and presence with some chocolate as well as coffee. the roast is a bit firmer than guessed too and there's fairly snappy bitter finish. Halfway - but no more - to Schwarzbier and pretty good for it.

Pour is a complete black with a huge tan head. Aroma is a slight toasted malt with more of a herbal hop. Flavor is more toasted malt with a minor bitter bakers chocolate and more herbal hop. This is more schwartz bier than porter but it is still tasty.
