5.6
Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 5.5

Black in color. Fresh beer smell. Thin head with a slight dark beer nose. Decent schwartz flavor without any rudeness. A milder, easy to drink dark beer. I liked this one. One of the better brews we had at komana.

Listed as a rauchbier on the menu. Had this on tap at the source. This is an almost black beer with a slight smoke olfactory. Can't smell any bacon in this. Taste is that of a very dark beer and there is very little smoke in there but it is ever present. I kindah like the attitude of this, its has just enough rauchness in there to let you know its a smoked beer but it never gets up your snoot. Overall it seems like a decent mild black lager with just a tad of rauchy feel. None of that bacon thing going on here. Not bad, one of the better beers I've had at komana.

Tap at the source. Copper coloredA little rough around the edges for my taste buds. Mind you, its not hop bitter its a and clear. Mild perfume for a nose. Initially bitter with a little bit of that immature brewer phenolic thing going on. Needs a little more work to be presentable. Mind you, its not hop bitter, its phenolic. Long astringent finish.

Tap at the source. Pale and cloudy, looks something like a wit but maybe a little more yellow. Mild sweet perfume on the nose. Odd hefe taste in this, but its nit bubblegum nor coriander. Regardless it is quite mild considering the 5% rating on it. Easy with just a tad of that immature brewer phenolic bite in there. Not bad but could use a little more manners.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 3 | Texture - 2 | Overall - 4

On tap at the source. Starts with a clean fresh nose and a cloudy pale eye, nice white foamy head Almost flat on the plate. Taste has some of that virgin brewer attribute; almost phenolic at times. Oddly bitty. A little uncivilized yet lack the bitter real hop taste you get from well made wheat ales.
