Kohlenmühle Moggerla

Impression: I didn’t have any real expectations. To be honest, the brewery was picked for its food and convenience but after having their Moggerla, I had to try this. Schwarzbier is not a typical Franconian style but this one certainly looked the part and the taste lived up to its appearance. I’d say I liked the Moggerla better but this was a fine example of the style, too.
