Commercial Description:
Our malty, sweet dark lager is a hometown favorite. Our Dunkel is packed with subtle roasted malt flavors without the excessive bitterness and heaviness of many dark beers and has a balanced hop finish. O.G. 13.5 Plato 5.2% ABV

Bottle sampled. Pours amber/brown with a large size beige head. Aroma is prodominately caramel, with some toasted malts and chocolate coming slightly through as well. The flavor is sweet upfront, caramel, chocolate, and toastiness and bmild bitter finish. Light bodied, and thin mouth feel.

Bottle. A dark brown pour with way too much head,foam all over. Aroma of dark bread and burnt plastic. Flavor is heavy on the malt, like burnt caramel,tea and something else ? Sorry this was not for me

Wish I had read the reviews of this before I bought it. Oh well, it was only one bottle in a mixed six so whatever. A gusher that had soured. The aroma was barely malty and slightly sour. Malt flavor and thin chocolate are washed away by chemical sourness. Body wasn’t great. Drainpour.

The most dangerous beer in America! Its exploding all over the USA! LITERALLY!! Of course its over-carbonated, it started refermenting on the warm shelf or truck it was shipped in. Using cheap glass doesn’t help and the forty year old soda bottle filler doesn’t get steam sterilized (chemical only). DIRTY BREWERY = DIRTY BEER!

A gift from Sandman2222. Good stuff, rich in flavor for a lager. The head is unbelievable. This head is VERY anxious to meet you. I had 1/4 a glass of beer and an overflowing head. A bit weak in aroma, but flavor has lots of malt, and some nutty or maybe banana flavor? Very sweet in the finish. Surprisingly complex for a lager.

Really disappointed in this beer. It took 8-10 minutes to be able to empty the bottle into my glass. Foam head was as tall as the glass. Slowly faded. Color was nice and aroma had caramel, malts and a little sweetness. Way too much carbonation. I tried to finish the pour drinking right out of the bottle and ended up with it running all over everything. Again, was excited at a dark beer, but other than the color was really disappointed.
