A: Pours dark brown with a big fluffy light brown head. Head fades slowly with wonderful retention. Solid, heavy walls of lacing left behind.
S: Nice toasted malt, pretzel-like. Creamy milk chocolate mixes in. Surprisingly nice.
T: Mild sweet and creamy chocolate up front. Sweetness runs out into a toasted malt finish with bittersweet chocolate. Dry in the finish - well attenuated.
M: Very smooth, not watery at all.
O: A simple but tasty schwarzbier. Nice toasted malt and chocolate flavors meld and balance nicely.

I tried this beer because I read reviews here on Beer Advocate. The reviews were spot on! The beer is darker than what I normally drink but the taste is a bit lighter than what it looks when it pours. It’s perfect.

Very roasted and nutty taste, wouldn't drink it with food but it tastes good and feels smooth.

From the can, it pours a brown color with a light off-white head that slowly diminishes as you watch. In the nose, it is coffee and black malt. In the mouth, it is a light in texture and light black malt flavor.
