Beer No. 41 on my tour through Austria, Germany and Denmark.
On tap at Hops & Barley. Dark brown coloured, small off-white head, roasty and light caramel in the nose. Light roasted malt, caramel and mild bitter hoppy with hint of coffee near the end. Ok dunkel.

Had this beer some time ago, transferring data from database before Januar I was using to rate beer. As I drink this again I will add a complete review.

Tap at the brewpub, Berlin. Pours hazy, red-brown with a foamy, cream head. Dark bread, toast, and a bit of cocoa in the nose. Delicious flavor, mild roasted toast, tasty cocoa and dark chocolate, some burnt wood and earthy bitterness. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Clean and balanced finish, with rich toast, burnt caramel, mild leaves and earth, dry cocoa. Very impressive beer. Yes, I’m quite impressed.

On tap at the site in October. Copper with a small off-white head. Aroma of chocolate and caramel with DMS. Sweet chocolate and caramel malty flavour

Tap at the pub. Ruby-brown body with a creamy, rocky beige/tan head. Lightly roasty nose, mouth brings out dark chocolate, light nuts, and beautiful, sultry burned notes. Just delicious roastiness here, edging even to coffee. Toffee, too, and you could’ve fooled me by calling it a brown porter. Very full medium body because of a very full carb. Low sweetness, low bitterness, hops leaching out at the end, love it. Excellent.

On draft at the brewery. Hazy, brown body with a thick, rocky, off-white head. Lightly bready aroma - crust, cracker and some raisin. Nice light roast in the flavor with faint chocolate. Good toasty presence and raisin notes. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Balanced towards the malt, but the bitterness keeps it in check. Faint roasty finish. Delicious!

Hausbrauerei Hops & Barley, Berlin. Végre egy, a megszokottól eltérő berlini Dunkel. Sötétbarna szín, krémes piszkosfehér hab. Illata erősen pörkölt malátás, aszalt gyümölcsös és kissé kávés. Íze is erősen pörkölt malátás, fekete kenyeres, kávés és füvesen komlós, keserédes. Közepesen testes, ízes és tartalmas Dunkel, na végre.

On tap at the brew-pub. Pours a clear dark brown with a tanned head. Sweet with dry aromas of toasted malts. Also aromas of dark fruits. Medium bodied. Soft to medium carbonation.

Merkwürdig säuerlich-malziger Antrunk, sehr eigen, etwas muffig. Herb-röstmalzig werdend, noch leicht säuerlich, kernig. Abgang hopfig-malzig-herb, die Säuerlichkeit ist nunmehr verschwunden. Test vom 11.10.2008, Gebinde: Fass Noten: 10,9,8,9,-,9 - 8,94

Draught. Pours coca cola looking with a off white head. Taste of sirup and lightly rosted malt.
