(draught) pours a hazy golden-amber colour with a frothy off-white head. aroma of strawberries and cherries, with lots of cardboard and sweet mustiness. flavour is overwhelmingly grainy, with a very light hint of dark fruits and roasted malts. medium-bodied with average carbonation.

Draft at the brewpub. Not very dark for a "dunkel" - more of an amber, I’d say. Quite "bubbly" as a travel companion noted, airy and quite filling. Both beers we tried here had an odd bubblegum essence that was less than appealing. (#4397, 12/3/2011)

Beer No. 102 on my tour through Austria, Germany and Denmark.
Draught at the brewpub. Murky amber coloured, small off-white head, pretty neutral nose, just tiny hint of caramel. Toasted malty, caramel and light fruity with mild hoppiness in the finish. Simple dunkel.

Draught at the brauhaus
Cloudy red-amber color. Very light caramel aroma. Light caramel flavor, sweetish, but with a light ash trace in the end. Low bitterness. Boring.

Sampled during trip to Bamberg 2011. Tap at the brewery. Light clear brown small off white head. Dusty hop aroma with light caramel notes and spices, sweet spicy finish.

Dunkler, deutlich zu süßer Antrunk mit einer Malznote, die eher lächerlich wirkt. Den Hauptteil macht die kernige Getreidigkeit aus, die auch den Abgang regiert, in welchem aber immerhin karamellige Noten hinzukommen. 9/9/8/9//9

UPDATED: MAY 16, 2011 vom Fass in a Bierprobe. Very much like a micro-brewed American Dunkel, it has a slight hint of diacetyl but ultimately is pretty tasty.
