MrBeer (276), Erie, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 22, 2007 nice dark appearance, has nice flavor and follows up with a good aftertaste
douglas88 (942), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Nov 26, 2008 Bottle thanks to Daniel. Pours out a ruby/brown color with a small white head. The aroma is mostly toasted malts, some light fruits and perhaps s touch of banana. The flavor is similar; lots of toasted malts, some bananas, clove and something odd I can’t put my finger on. Fizzy and full of flavor. Decent overall. sebletitje (579), Tampa, Florida, USA Nov 1, 2008 Pours amber, beige head.
Aroma is malty / caramel, earthly hops.
Taste, malty with some ncie chocolate notes with subtle nutty addition.
Beer is well balanced, light hops giving an alsmot dark fruits flavor, with an always present nice chocolate / caramel malts.
Finish leaves some light bitter hops.
Beer became more enjoyable as it warmed up.
One great dunkel. brew4fun (137), West Virginia, USA Oct 21, 2008 Very dark brown, minimal head. Faint aroma of brown malt. Taste of brown malt, nice bitterness but no discernible hop flavor. Thin (but not watery) body, medium carbonation with dry finish. Mild yet enjoyable brew. robertjm (241), El Cerrito, California, USA Aug 19, 2008 (A gift from a friend’s trip back east). Effectively zero psst when popping the cap, but poured a nice head with fair amount of carbonation. Bottle is nice dark orange, with shades of brown, as would be expected in a dunkel. Aroma is light, but definately has traits of malt to it. Malt character also in the flavor profile. It says its a dunkel, but to me it has a yeasty taste to it, reminiscent of a Belgian yeast, with s bitter/sour hoppiness in the aftertaste. Trying to decide what to think of this beer. To me it doesn’t match the typical dunkel flavor profile, but its not necessarily bad. mabel (1710), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 4, 2008 [1281-20080410] 12floz bottle. Toasted mouldy grains aroma has a hint of garbage, hay straw and crayon wrapper. Clear, rich amber body with quick white creamy bubbles. Mildly sour brown ale flavour characteristics with basic grains and toasted malt. Medium body is mostly mid-notes. Weird floral background.
