16oz can from Tavour. Near black pour, half finger of foamy beige head. Roasty aroma, bitter, burnt toast. Taste is mostly roasty, light sweetness and notes of dark chocolate. Smooth mouthfeel with a trace of lingering bitterness.

16 ounce can from Tavour. Barely translucent dark brown color. Frothy tan head. Subtle roasty malt aroma. Flavor is bittersweet chocolate, roasted malt, coffee and dark caramel. Immensely drinkable.

Man these guys are good, 2nd Cerebral beer tonight, and I love a good schwarzbier and this is a good schwarzbier. Nicely profiled with a gentle coffee note. Semi-sweet overall. Bitter chocolate, light coffee, bready, light caramel or toffee notes.

16 oz can shared with jcos, 1/28/24. Dark brown color, medium brown head. Roasty, grains, licorice. Some dark chocolate and earth as well. Touch of toffee. Pretty interesting stuff.

16 oz. can. Pours black, with a small, foamy, tan head. The nose is butter toffee, light peat, roasted chesnuts, pine sap. Sweet and malty, with a good, roasty bitterness. Medium to heavy body, with a syrupy, chewy palate. Pretty bold and tasty.

10 ounce at the brewery - it's been a minute since I've had a schwarzbier this good - almost forgot what they were like - super dry, but still richly malty - crisp but still full and round - nicely balanced bitterness and roast - touches of smoke around the edges - damn is Cerebral ain't hitting their stride these days.

American take on the style. Clean, but round and a bit bitter. Not perfect, but good. Freshcraft denver
