This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a dark brown close to black color with a nice little white cap of a head sitting atop of the beer. No lacing.
The aroma had some burnt toast, dark malts, grassy and piney hops.
The flavor had some sharp bitter piney-ness to it initially. Malts stay in the background. Blended malty to hoppy aftertaste with the same sort of finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a fair sessionability about it. Mild carbonation. Decent ABV.
Overall, this is a schwarzbier? Where’s the German yeastiness? Hmmmm....Closer to a black IPA. I don’t know, maybe again.
