Darker than I expected with a name like that. A little chocolate, not really lager-like flavor (missing that distinctive lager character)

Reddish-amber colour with a quickly dissipating head. Toasted malkt aroma and sweet malt flavour. It actually seems more bock or vienna-like to me. Not nearly dry enough to be a dunkel.

More of a black bier than a dunkel... not as much malt. Light and drinkable.

Nice creamy head, brownish red color. Thin coffee scent. Light coffee taste, with not much else to it.

Dark red in color, small head that disappeared rather quickly. Aroma was of roasted coffee. Flavor was coffee-ish, and a bit sweet, but finished extremely watery and bland. It had the beginnings of a hop bite, but only the beginnings. Sadly, I was not overly impressed. This is not a bad beer by any means, but it’s nothing to have more than once. Cool artwork on the label, though...
