KC Bier Co. Schwarzbier
What the brewers say
“Rich malt flavors of roasted coffee and chocolate, moderate bitterness, crisp, clean finish.”
What our panel thought
“Interesting malt aroma: cake, a light bit of chocolate malt, cocoa, coffee. Mild floral/herbal hops. Clean, but subdued. Malt-forward flavor—hints of cocoa, toast, milk chocolate, caramel, bread crust. Clean, drinkable, and light. Finish mostly dry.”
What our editors thought
“Light roasty nose, mild sip. Balances toward the light side, with gentle dark caramel notes and a touch of hop bitterness. Finishes a bit soft and lingering without the required definition.”
