3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Trendy frosted white bottle. Fairly roasted caramel light salted peanut aroma. Red chestnut, golden layer. Big roast and chocolate initially, much more than usually so in a german dunkel. Mellows to a medium chewy sweet body with a herbal light spicy finish. Mellow mouthfeel. Quick roasted aftertaste. Interresting.

2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Leicht malzig und kaffeartig im Mittelteil, gut ausgeglichen. Der Nachgeschmack hält durchschnittlich lange und geht, wie das Bier im Ganzen, in Ordnung.

Small bottle as Premuim Dunkel, I also tried a bottle of Spezial Dunkel, they are the same. It is a bit sweet and rough for a dunkel.

3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
0.5 l bottle. Hazy dark amber color. Sweetish nutty aroma with hint of coffee and sulfur. The flavor is also sweetish and very nutty with some kellerbier like fruitiness and dark bread. Good beer, but this is mostly about straightforward nutty maltiness.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Chocolate/molasses malt aroma. Dark brown color with moderate head. Sweet chocolate and molasses malt flavor with lightly bitter hops finish. Very nice dunkel.
3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle, shared by fonefan. A slightly hazy, amber beer with a small, off-white to beige head sitting on top. Butterscotchy nose with roasted malts and some fruits. Roasted malts with butterscotch flavor in the back, a bit low on flavor maybe, and there’s also something reminiscent of cocoa. Medium body with pleasant carbonation level. Slightly acidic in the finish, but mostly caramel and roasted malts. A decent one, but I can easily do without butterscotch. 090822
