Köstritzer Schwarzbierbrauerei GmbH & Co. Köstritzer Schwarzbier – Schwarzbier at 4.8% ABV (C$3.59 at NLC Stavanger, 500 ml, packaged on 10-Oct-2019, acquired 9-Jul-2020, reviewed 14-Jul-2020)
Appearance: slightly hazy deep cola red with one fat finger of rocky beige head, good retention and moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: dark roasty / ashy malt, toasted bread, hint of chocolate. (6/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate carbonation, off-dry mild bitter finish. (3/5)
Decent enough, though slightly light, maybe even tending to watery. Aromas and flavours are also mild, though inoffensive. It’s fairly refreshing, though. (12/20)
