I've been trying to get hold of a schwartzbier to try over Xmas, but can I feck find an example. Echo the other comments of a nice Belgian dubbel Ord though - they cut through the strong flavours really well.
Fermenting: IPA, Lambic, Mead
Conditioning: Lambic, Cider, RIS, Ole Ale, Saison

I saw a few schwarzbiers in Sweeneys in Phibsborough a wee while ago, if that's any use to you.

The porterhouse used to do a fantastic black lager on tap, but alas, necer bottled it. Not a style you commonly see in bottle. A pity, they're so much more interesting than boring plain old lager.. ;)
