Schwarzbier; meaning black beer in German, is a traditional European lager. Here at Caboose we like to put our own spin on tradition so we threw in some cherry wood smoked malt and 6 other specialty malts to make this unique brew stand out. A touch of noble hops balance the malt bill to create a smooth easy drinking lager. Perfect for sitting on the deck and welcoming the fall.

At the source: pours black with a beige head. Aroma is a hint of smoke, chocolate, and maybe some cafe. Taste is chewy chocolate and burnt malt. Lingering dark chocolate aftertaste. Noce medium body. Good.

Pretty nice stuff actually. Good dose of smoke and lots of roast an caramel. Pours black with good head and lacing. Light bittersweet finish. Good balance. Tap at Galaxy Hut.

On draft at the brewpub it is a dark amber color with a slight tan head. The aroma is mocha and the taste is strong bitter coffee taste with a smoky after taste and hints of black licorice.

4 oz pour on draft at Caboose. Dark brownish black with light tan head. Aromas of chocolate, light roast, subtle smoke. Tastes of light smoke, licorice, roast, subtle chocolate. Medium-light body with a dry finish. Was expecting more smoke due to the name, but I guess it’s accessible for someone just getting into the style.

Draft at Caboose. Poured a dark color, almost black, not super thick - about what you’d expect from a black lager. Aroma was roasted malts, with some light smoke notes. Flavor was light smoke, sweet malts. Pretty tasty.
