Schilling Beer Co. Rennsteig
Schwarzbier (Black Beer) 5.4 º
Rennsteig is an elegant Schwarzbier that masterfully balances depth with high drinkability. This German dark lager presents a sophisticated malt profile characterized by the aroma of fresh-baked rye bread and delicate notes of baker’s chocolate. A subtle hint of roasted coffee adds complexity without veering into acrid territory, maintaining the style's signature clean fermentation profile. True to the craft of Schilling, it remains remarkably light and crisp on the palate despite its dark appearance. The finish is notably dry and refreshing, ensuring that the interplay of smooth roasted grains and gentle bitterness invites another sip while honoring the 700-year-old hiking trail heritage it represents.
Appearance. Very dark brown with brilliant clarity and deep ruby highlights when held to the light (SRM 25-30). Topped by a large, persistent, tan-colored head with excellent lacing.
Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring a clean lager character. Rich, bready malt aromas reminiscent of fresh rye bread dominate, complemented by soft roasted notes of unsweetened baker's chocolate and a faint hint of coffee. Low herbal noble hop aroma is present in the background.
Taste. Initial impression is of clean, bready malt that transitions into a light roasted character featuring baker's chocolate and a touch of coffee. Medium-low bitterness provides a crisp balance to the malt complexity. Hop flavor is low and herbal. The finish is remarkably dry and clean, leaving a subtle, lingering cocoa-like roast and light hop bitterness in the aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with moderate to moderately-high carbonation. Very smooth on the palate with no harshness or roasted astringency. Alcohol warmth is very low, contributing to its high drinkability.
