Via trade with Lubiere and Capflu. Pours clear orange in color with a light tan head. Malty aroma. Bready too. Malty flavor. Nice body for a light beer. Easy drinking.

Via trade with Lubiere and Capflu. Pours a clear orange with a nice light tan head. Malty, almost bready aroma. Malty flavor. Decent body for a light beer. A little one dimentional, but making a beer like this clean is worthy of note. Very easy drinking, and a decent session brew.

Pours clear almost maple syrup coloured. Tiny white head. Moderate hop floral, sweet earthy aroma. Refreshing. Nice bitter and nutty roast. It’s set upon a watery back drop.

Tap: Poured a clear black beer with an almost non-visible head. Carbonation is quite low which doesn’t augur too well. Aroma is quite weak with a small touch of malt and hops coming out of my glass. Taste is better then expected when starting with subtle sweet taste and ending with a good bitter final. Overall, this is a good refreshing drink lacking some carbonation and probably the chocolate/nutty taste of regular dunkel.

Pours a dark golden brown with a light white rothy head. Aromas of... I can’t place it.... doughy, but moldy.....It’s a little odd... unlike any beer I’ve had so far.... Thins may be my first dunkle and that may explain it.... Flavors of toasted malts, a slight dough and slighly smokey.... Overall, nothing to be excited about..

A copper coloured beer, with a sour-dough bread nose. There’s some nice hops flavor in there, but some unfortunate root vegetable flavors began to creep in as well. Not as dark or as full bodied as its name implies either. I prefer Heritage’s regular lager.

Hoppy greenness converging with roasted malt metal...When fresh, grassy bitterness emerges as the winner, as the thin body cannot withstand its herbal weight, but with a little time the roastiness can topple the hops...A nice quaffer...

Dark, toasty, roasty and lightly hoppy. Clear, brown with thin white head that recedes to ring. Surprisingly hoppy flavour with thin caramel base. Lightly roasty in the finish. Refreshingly light. Enjoyed with MartinT. Bottle.
