3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Draught at The Victory Café, Toronto - came dark brown, quite dark actually, with a thin and foamy off-white head. Lots of dark sweet malt in the aroma, roasty and nutty. Flavour is very smooth and full, with lots of nutty, earthy flavours and roasty malt all the way through. Malty, lighty dry hoppy finish provides some nice bitterness at the close. Very refreshing and a fine example of this style of lager. Very well made, expertly balanced.

Beer sampling at beerbistro in Toronto on saturday night. I was told to look for Denisons Weissbier unfortunatly this is as close as I would come. But this is enjoyable in its own right. Pours a nice brown and tastes of dark fruit, brown sugar, nuttiness, with a hoppy finish. it was lighter than it looks and very nice

Very interesting citric flavours and dark fruit. Not what I was expecting from a Dunkel, but pleasantly surprised, really.

On tap at beerbistro. Pours a clear reddish brown with small tan head. Aroma of caramel, nuttiness and a bit of dark fruit. Nuttiness is more pronounced in the flavour and has a bit of hoppy bitterness in the finish. Nice.

On tap at Chancey Smiths in London. Pours deep brown in colour, with nice big tan head. Aroma is rich malt, roasty! Taste is the same, nice and thick, and chewy, roasted malt. Great beer for a cold winter night!

UPDATED: MAR 11, 2005 Re-Rate March 2005 - Dark ruby tinged brown body with a beige head and nice lacing on the glass. Malty aroma , and a touch of yeasty "tartness" over notes of caramel. The precise words for which escape me. Similar flavours with a sort of dry nuttiness balancing the malty caramel sweetness. Nice medium bodied palate. Nice to see another great offering from Denisons. 7/4/7/3/15 3.6<P> Original Rating Part of a sampler. Dark brown. Sweet and malty in both the aroma and the flavour. Not bad. 4/3/5/3/13 2.8

Refreshing for a "dark" beer, this was a great palate cleanser after some hearty stouts.
