On tap at the brewery. Pours black with beige head. Body is medium and crisp. Very astingent taste, caramel toasted malt and herbal hops. Not too good.

,2l vom fass / 2,20€ at the brewery on 25.09.2017

Look: Clear deep mahogany brown body with crimson and ruby highlights beneath a rocky head of khaki colored foam. Very good head retention and excellent lacing.

Smell: Chocolate, coffee, dark caramel.

Taste: Chocolate, coffee, and dark caramel backed by mild grassy and leafy hops. Balanced by a moderate bitterness level, it finishes mostly dry with some lingering residual chocolate, coffee, and dark caramel - it's obviously no more complex than those three main flavors and the background hops, but it doesn't really need to be as what's there is quite good.

Feel: Medium bodied and surprisingly smooth across the tongue.

Overall: Very nicely brewed and well balanced. Highly drinkable!

Review based on the BJCP2008 guidelines (style 4C). Draft @ Hausbrauerei Altstadthof. AROMA: mild roasted notes reminiscent of coffe with a sweet malty background. APPEARANCE: dark color and somewhat hazy. average pale brown head with medium retention. TASTE: sweet malt flavour with roasted notes. medium-low bitterness with a semi-sweet finish. PALATE: medium-low body with low carbonation. OVERALL: a not bad craft schwarzbier.
