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.

Clear amber colour, qith a small head. Caramel aroma, with some roasted notes. The flavour is malty, sweet and spicy, but balanced. The aftertaste is quite long. Well done.

cloudy dark brown slightly reddish color foamy head, Aroma had a faint spice to it with a malty character as the focus. Taste starts sweet and malty with almost a mollasses teaser near the front and ends with a strong bitterness. slight fruitiness to the taste. Never had an dunkel like thise.

Pours dark and amber red with a frothy off white head which is mostly diminishing. Aroma is heavy malts, dark bread and cookies with a hint of apple. Flavor starts big and malty, kind of sweet and finishes clean and dry. Light to medium bodied watery and softly carbonated. Nice.

This is a very attractive beer - deep amber color, with an off-white head. Very sweet aroma, most noticeably caramel and chocolate, and the initial flavor follows suit. The aftertaste reminds me of a sweet flavored coffee. Overall, a fine dunkel, but I would like a bit more hops to balance things out.

I’ve really been enjoying Ayinger’s fine beers this fall. This one pours dark amber with a medium sized, lasting beige head. the aroma is strong caramel, some wet hay, a nice fruit note, and even some chocolate. Flavor is a bit smoky, with caramel chocolate, tobacco, nuts, and fruit. Fits the fall season very well.
