0.3 l on tap at the brewpub. Black with a medium large, frothy, stable, beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently roasty aroma of dark chocolate, coffee, roasted hazelnut and hints of licorice. Quite sweet, malty, fairly roasty taste of dark chocolate, coffee, roasted hazelnut and a touch of licorice, followed by a short, gently roasty-bitter finish. Medium to full body, smooth and slightly creamy mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Lovely Schwarzbier, resembles their core-range Dunkles a lot imho.

0.5 l bottle from 'EDEKA Gronemann', as 'Castroper Revierweizen' at 4.8% abv, best before March 2024. Very hazy, orangeish amber with a medium large, frothy, slowly diminishing, white head. Sweetish, rather yeasty-spicy, slightly fruity aroma of clove, banana, pear, orange and some grains. Slightly sweet, quite bitter, gently yeasty-spicy and quite fruity taste of orange, grapefruit, banana, clove, bitter orange and some grains, followed by a medium long, fairly bitter, slightly dry finish. Medium body, slightly astringent and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Promising aroma, way too bitter in the taste, fairly unbalanced. Not sure what they tried here, never had such a bitter Weizen.

Sweetish-malty, gently roasty aroma of dark chocolate, coffee and some hazelnut. Quite sweet, malty, rather roasty, gently bitter taste of dark chocolate, coffee, roasted hazelnut and some licorice, followed by a short, gently roasty-bitter finish.
