Commercial Description:
Dark chocolate in color, you can see a wonderful reflection if you hold it up to the light. It is round and soft with the warm, sweet aroma of freshly roasted malted barley. A satisfying, malty taste, with coffee-ish tones and a hint of plummy fruitiness in the finish. Complex and beautifully balanced.

Poured a nice copper red with a one finger frothy tan head. The aroma was sweet, a bit earthy, lager aroma fo sho, bready, basement earthy aromas. The flavor was lightly sweet, bready, malt dominant, very light hop presence, some raisin (?), basement feel is the best way I can describe it. Nice carbonation and finishes earthy with a very very mild hop bite. Easy drinker.

The color was amber, brown. The head was creamy, off-white, fizzy. The aroma was toasty, caramel malt, and light roast. The flavor was toasty and sweet. The palate was smooth. The finish was clean.

Draught at their tap. Clear dark brown colour. Nice, big, lacy, stable, rocky tan head. Good roasted flavour, slightly malty.

Molasses and heavily roasted malt aroma, which approaches that of dog food. Very clear brown, with a thick light tan head. Very malty and kibbly flavor. Probably good with stew, but just a bit too similar to Alpo.

Pretty decent overall, standard fare as far as Dunkels go. Smells and tastes really fresh, some dark fruits and spice follow through with a slight bit of banana, and some creamy nutty flavors. Not bad.
