Jan 24, 2004 Somewhat dry, roasty tmave. Strictly middle of the raod, but easily beat the Beck Dark I had after this. Retired? Must have been very recent.

Jan 5, 2004 A nice, rather dry and roasty dunkel from the Czech Republic that I've heard of for years but never seen until a recent trip to California's BevMo. A touch nutty and not terribly sweet. It's almost a porter, I'd say, due to its roastiness. OK, but I wouldn't seek it out again.

Jan 1, 2004 Retired? Poured dark black with sticky tan head and toffee aroma. Smoky wood flavors on a smooth beer ... quite nice.

Dec 25, 2003 This was actually quite tasty to me. A nice bitter roastedness, with some light coffee notes in places, otherwise, it had a very toasted oat, breakfast cereal taste at times. Somewhat inconsistent and unbalanced, maybe it was an old bottle, but I still found it to be enjoyable.

Oct 18, 2003 Bottle. A hint of roasted grains and a slightly sweet nose. Very dark beer with a small beige head. The flavor is toasted grains but then disapears to a watery beer. A slight lingering roastiness, but not much else. You'll wish for a bit more flavor.

Sep 29, 2003 Dark, almost ruby tint with no head to speak of. Roasty vanilla nose. Slightly acidic but roasty throughout, some hints of alcohol and a long sweet lactic finish.

Sep 26, 2003 Dark with only a sliver of head. Glimpses of red around the corners. Milk chocolate with the same moutfeel -- smooth. Tastes and feels like a milk stout.

Sep 16, 2003 Dark brown with a small off-white head. Molasses aroma with pine resin and toffee intermingled. Extremely light sweetness in initial flavor. Light body, watery texture. Not bad, just not very flavorful.
