Botella. Clear dark brown colour, big bubbly beigehead. Sweet well toasted caramel and malty aroma with some dark fruit. Good mouthfeel. Sweet well toasted maltiness and caramel in the flavour with dark fruit, bit chocolate and a pleasant bitterness.

On tap: Pours a glorious clear brown with a 2 finger off white cap. Laces up the glass sides. Rich roasty-toasty aroma with some dried fruit and wet hay. Rich chewy mouth feel, big dose of toasted munich malts in front offset by spalter herbal bittering, still leans to the lightly sweet side. Mid pa;ate there is some complexity of flavors; figs, cocoa, pumpernickel...goes to a clean roasty-bittering dry finish with a nice noble bite at the end. A great dunkel I could session with.

Really nice dark German beer. Sweet and somewhat flat, but easy to drink. Still doesn’t hold a candle to optimator.

Some vegetal notes in the flavor too, with dried fruits and coffee pulling most of the load. Full-bodied, quite dry. Some metallic notes in the end. A decent one, nothing special. 091223

Bottle @ Bayernhaus, KL. Not the Bavariahaus, that’s a diff. place. Dark warm brown with thick stable beige head. Aroma is solid pumpernickel bread with rich molasses and rich dark bread.

Some Worstershire. Is nice.
