Commercial Description:
The creme-coloured, fine-pored froth forms a nice contrast to the dark red-brown of the beer; the nose detects a robust malt scent with subtle undertones: a slightly caramel touch. A malted sweetness is noted when first sampling. This is quite decently supported by a subtle bitter touch. A full-bodied, well-rounded malt taste remains on the palate.

An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with light caramel notes, while the flavor has stronger notes of caramel, still on a sweet background.

Draught, Archer Ale House
Bright dark brown. Figs, molasses and brown sugar in the aroma. The body is light, and a bit watery in the finish. Flavours of light molasses, graham crackers and slightly sticky sugariness. Decent balance.

Draught. A halfway decent dunkel i thought. Some light brown sugar and caramel, with a grassy hop edge. Not too sweet or anything, pleasant.
