3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
(bottle, 35.5cl, courtesy of Jonas) Clear, chestnut-brown colour with a beige mid-sized foamy head. Sweet and roasted malty aroma with burnt notes, caramel and bread crusts. Roasty bitter and slightly sweet flavour, medium to light bodied with a mild carbonation. A bit slim roasty malty base with notes of caramel, dark bread and an earthy touch; quite dry and bitter roasty malty finish. A decent Schwarzbier-like Dunkel. 25.I.11

Solid beer, tastes more like a brown ale to me then a dunkel, but nice hop profile mixed with some darker malt to give it a nice balance, very drinkable, I like it

Bottlen (big thanks to joss!): Clear, deep amber coloured with a medium-sized lacy off-white head; moderate sweet dark-malty and distinctively toasty-roasty nose; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied; sweet dark-malty finish with a increasing roasty, almost smoky bitterness in the aftertaste. Nice and dry Dunkel......

355mL. Into a doppelbock glass, it pours a clear deep amber to brown with a healthy, coffee brown head that leaves webby lace. Nose of dogfood raw malt, rye, grist, roast, caramel, sweet black cherry soda. Body adds some roasted coffee, roasted malt bitterness. Soapy bitterness. Palate is light with a fizzy mouthfeel.
