3.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
This is a nice dunkel. Nothing to get excited about but extremely drinkable and easy to enjoy. Aroma of roasted malt with a hint of earth. Pour was a nice deep dark brown with a one finger close to tan head. Taste was a little thin...chocolate and roasted malt all the way with big carbonation that kind of takes away from the flavor. A suprisingly dry finish that is light and a tad bitter. Pretty good.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Pours cloudy brown with way, way too much head. Nose is faint roasted malt. Flavor of crystal malt and hospital coffee with a faint hops bitterness. Watery. Forgettable.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
(12oz bottle) Enormous beige head atop clear copper body. Aroma is medium sweet, nut, some lager lemon, caramel, light earthy. Taste is medium sweet, nut, chocolate/caramel, light raisin, lager yeast sourness. Effervescent light-medium body.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle pours a red tinted brown; with medium to large off white head. Aroma was ok; with fruit, roasted malt, chocolate, and some floral notes. Flavor was generally sweet; with predominate flavors being roasted malt and nuts. Body was a little light and watery. Decent overall.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Appearance: Pours a reddish-brown body with a thin white head.
Smell: Exceedingly light aroma of cheap tobacco and nuts.
Taste: Toasted malt flavor with an earthy nuttiness to it and a sprinkle of spice. Not really much hop character present, flavor, or bitterness. Finishes clean.
Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Out of six different Atwater brews, this one was by far the best of the bunch, but still just wasn’t worth it.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 10/20
Deep mahogany with a thin tan head. The smell is molasses with roasted malt and a slightly floral. It is a thin watery medium body with toasted malt and a bit of nuttiness and hint of sweetness. The finish is slightly bitter at the finish.

dark ruby, thin fine beige head,
sweet chocolate aroma with a light fruity character,
creamy body,
sweet tart malt flavor with a nice cherry character,
the dunkle was probably not intended to be a chocolate krek, but it turned out that way and is OK

Bottle. Roasted aroma, with a rich malty tone to it. Overall the beer was pretty light, refreshing and, well good. After having some Atwater brews that were only so-so this one hit the spot.
