A combination of Munich and Pilsner malts as well as a touch of de-husked roasted barley. Notes of toasted bread, coffee, and a hint of cocoa.

On tap at the brewery earlier this lunchtime.

Black body with reddish highlights. Small off white head, a few streaks of lacing. Aroma is clean, malty, a touch earthy. On tasting, follows the nose with some bitterness and roast late in the finish.

Overall, decent drink, muted, would be happy to have again.

16 oz can, dated Fresh by 5/18/26

Pours a clear medium brown color, with tan colored head. Bready toasted malt aroma. Similar taste, starts a little sweet but balanced finish. Medium bodied.

Would not call it a schwarzbier, more like a dunkel

Pours dark brown with two fingers of foamy tan head. Good retention and clumpy, soap bubble lacing.

Cocoa, roasted malts and carbon dioxide in the nose.

A hint of stone fruit is added to the mix in the taste. Roasted malts and light bitterness linger in the aftertaste.

Medium bodied, lightly creamy, with strong, tight carbonation.

A very quaffable, easy drinking, well balanced beer. The carbonation is a tad high to my preference, but would gladly drink again.
