Commercial Description:
Original Dark Lager is brewed according to J.C. Jacobsen's original recipe. The colour is chestnut. It has a Hersbrucker hop aroma while the floor malted Munich malt adds a caramel character. The carbonisation is gentle and the hop bitterness is soft. Enjoy at 6-8º.

(Denmark) Pours a med-brown color with zero head. The aroma is of walnuts, caramel, and dark malts. Taste is much of the same but the walnut flavor really comes through. The mouthfeel is smooth and has little or no carbonation. Pretty drinkable dunkel !!!

Bottle shared by BeerGestapo. Thanks Mike. Pours murky brown with hints of red, zero head even after a rough pour. Smells of toffee, dough, caramel, and dark fruit. Taste exactly like it smells with a walnut finish. Good, not great, a tad too sweet. It seems like everyone rated this one low because it is from Carlsberg but it really isn’t bad.

Poured a reddish-brown color with little head that dissipated rather rapidly. Aroma is not real strong, but has a somewhat sweet malty smell. Taste is also malty and sweet with hints of caramel and nuts. Little if any hop presence. Mouthfeel is okay, felt a bit on the thin side. Beer is okay, but not worth what I paid for it.
