Quack-Duck (6880) - Down South, GERMANY - SEP 15, 2008
bottle. Hazy brown colour, large and very creamy beige head. Malty nose. Full-bodied, lovely hints of caramel, roasted malts and chocolate. Very well-balanced with a pleasant soft carbonation. A very good Dunkel.

bhensonb (9092) - Woodland, California, USA - NOV 28, 2012
Swing-top from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours dark brown with a creamy beige head. Aroma is mildly sweet, darkly fruity and bready. Med body. Flavor is rather dry, tends towards dark brown bread. It has mild bitterness, but doesn’t seem very fruity after all. It’s really hard for me to describe in full detail, but there’s some bits and pieces I don’t understand. It all hangs together well tho, and it’s a really tasty drink.

marcus (5098) - Sacramento, California, USA - APR 21, 2013
Bottle from Total Wine, Sacramento. Pours dark brown with a rich beige head and a toasty aroma. There is a medium-bodied roasted malt flavor with a dry finish that sticks to the palate.

BeerViking (1454) - Lüneburg, Lower Saxony, GERMANY - SEP 2, 2011
500ml flip-top bought in Germany. Pours a deep reddish brown with a big beige head, aromas of sweet malt and caramel, and a hint of bread dough. More caramel on the palate but with a nice balancing peppery hoppy bite and a drying malty finish. A light tang of dark fruit and dry cocoa in the tail. Very nice.

yngwie (10798) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - NOV 14, 2007
Bottle. (trade w/papsoe) Presents itself with a nice, translucent, ruby body, and a beige, creamy head on top. Roasted, fruity nose with a little oxidized touch. Prunes as well. A nice aroma indeed. The flavor is a bit disappointing compared to the aroma, yet nice, with roasted malt, dried fruit, a little oxidation and and a little bitterness. Medium, slightly dryish mouthfeel. Roasted, slightly fruity finish with some coffee-like flavors and bitterness. Lovely dunkel. (071114)

Dark amber with a large beige head. Sweet aroma with roasted malt, caramel and overripe fruits. Flavour was sweet with roasted malt, caramel and toffee notes. Had some rye bread towards the finish. Not bad.
