deyholla (185), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jun 21, 2009 Bottle. Poured black with a brown head. Aroma was chocolaty with a bit of malt undertone. Flavor was dark with rich malt notes. Cybercat (655), Georgia, USA Jun 4, 2009 Aroma is strong, malty and yeasty with just a touch of cinnamon. It pours a somewhat transparent amber-brown with a thick and fairly persistent tan head - quite appetizing. Flavor is malty and hast a subtle undertone of molasses. Texture is smooth, a little fizzy and just a tad thin - this beer’s only weak point. Overall, a worthy brew. SB (317), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA May 22, 2009 From Bottle. D’s 6 packs and Dogs. Pours caramel brown. Nice foamy off-white head. Laced the entire glass as I drank. Aroma nutty, caramel, roasted malts. First sip was NOT what I expected. Bitter, sharp, and hoppy. After the first few sips like this my mouth adjusted. From there I could taste cocoa, caramel, roasted nuts and malts. Body was light. Watery almost. Finish was sharp and astringent. I am surprised that it is a dunkel. I would have never guessed. agillespie81 (160), Denver, Colorado, USA May 17, 2009 Dark brown color...almost opaque. Thin head, though with good lacing. Roasted malt aroma. Front has a bold maltiness for the style...crisp mouthfeel. Somewhat of a pungent hop bite develops in the back. Finish is dry, yet with a slight hop tang. Unique to find a dunkel with this amount of flavor, though the overly crisp profile masks a good deal of it...very drinkable however. WabashMan (783), Noblesville, Indiana, USA May 16, 2009 Decent, but not great. I’m surprised to learn that this is a dunkel, as it seemed more like a brown or even a traditional ale. Perhaps I should try it again, with Dunkel on my mind. biznizness (859), Mooresville, North Carolina, USA May 14, 2009 BOM April. Reasonably good dunkel lahger. My fire is already beginning to get lit for my Jamaican wedding next month. Not by this beer so much. Maybe a little. mesperon (83), Jersey City, New Jersey, USA Apr 30, 2009 pours dark brown, almost opaque with cola-colored edges, no head. light roasted coffee aroma with mushy malt.
watery feel. starts bitter, finishes mild. bit of roasty malt, slightly sweet on the edge. overall too mild BroSpud (424), , Massachusetts, USA Apr 30, 2009 12oz bottle from mix pack. One of the better options from a collection of very dissapointing beers from a Lakefront mix pack. Still I didn’t have anything great to say about this one either but it is drinkable and actually not that bad.
