Jan 4, 2010 Smells like fruit rotting in a metal box mixed with a little bit of spice. Not sure if that’s a good thing. Appearance is a dark purple/brown with very little head. Tastes a little flat, high notes are a caramel flavor and mild alcohol, a little soy saucey though which is not so great imo. Mouthfeel is dusty, just the right amount of aftertaste and carbonation.

Dec 20, 2009 (Bottle. Thanks to SaintMatty) Reddish amber colour with frothy, beige head. Fruity, malty aroma with notes of caramel, apples and red berries. Malty, fruity taste with sweet caramel malt, red berries and dark fruit. Slightly spicy, toasty finish. More than medium body, smooth mouthfeel. Sweet with low bitterness. Vienna leaning in the bock direction. Decent but hardly exciting.

Oct 25, 2009 330ml bottle (Stockman, Tallinn)
Bland aroma, some sweet caramel. Bland dark lager taste. Some esters,
some alcohol. Like a bad Czech dunkel. Scottish and Newcastle = Macro crap. Tastes better after eating fresh raw chillis - thanks Tranquillity!

Oct 23, 2009 A solid Dunkel that wears its high ABV well...aroma is average, but the rich color is attractive, and the carbonation level just right for the palate.

Sep 26, 2009 Huge, cream-coloured head, collapsing whilst fed by lively carbonation in deep chestnut coloured beer. Sweet caramel nose, with grassy notes and gassy impression. (Less) sweet caramel; felt/mossy flavours, bananaester (certainly warming up) and touch of dark chocolate, if without bitterness. Aftertaste reveals some stickyness, but it remains drinkable. If it would be served from the wood, and helped with a bucketful of Zlatec, if might even end up good. If a tad too sweet, not yet cloying. Acceptable - even if only for a pint.

Sep 4, 2009 Bottle 33cl: light brown head that soon dissapears. Brown colour, malty aroma and hop flavour. From my point of view the best beer brewed in Portugal, the same opinion that the most portuguese people.
