2.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Not much to the aroma, maybe yeast? Thin pour with a fast white fizzy head. In the glass, its deep brown but not dark enough to prevent you from seeing through the glass. The flavor is malty with hints of carmel and bitter finish. Not bad, try one.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle. Light molasses malt and vinegar aroma. Light clear brown color with small head. Strong dark malt flavor - slightly burnt flavor - strong acidity and moderate carbonation - tastes much stronger than the aroma and appearance would lead you to believe. A perkier dunkel - much more sharp tasting than is typical for the style.

Draft at Sippin by the River ’05. Rich, fresh, clean, dunkles. Enjoyable and a good alternative to the many fest beers out there these days.

Pretty good stuff. I like this one so much better than the regular Dinkel Acker. The aroma has lots of caramel and malt but has some hops to balance. The appearance is a red-brown with a medium head that fades pretty quick. The flavor is sweet toasted malt and some nuttiness. The sweetness is well balanced with the bitterness in this one. The palate is think but the alcohol is bold enough to keep it from being too weak. The aftertaste is toffee like. Good.

Dark brown. Good flavor. Mostly clean tasting, but a slight off aftertaste. A good dunkel
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Sampled at the Portland International Beer Fest 2005. Pours a clear copper with a smooth off-white head. Very sweet caramel malts up front. Very light on the palate with the rich malts fading nicely into a nice banana ester finish.
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Dark color. Brown with red tints when held up to the light. Nice thick creamy head. Fruity aroma. Nice bread doughy flavor with hints of caramel and molasses. A little syrupy. Not too bad.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours a nice dark brown with a good amount of foamy white head. Sweet malty bread aroma that is a little thin. Flavor is almost exactly the same as normal dinkel acker, just with a little more caramel sweetness. Overall, just a so so beer.
