Jul 10, 2008 Pour is clear brown with a medium roasted malt character. I got a light hop character in the beginning that moved on to a more roasted malt finishing with a little caramel. Pretty decent dark lager. Smooth. Not worth a second buy.

Jun 15, 2008 Eastside Dark is a most enjoyable dark lager. Reminds me of Leinie’s Creamy Dark, but Lakefront’s is far and away the more complete and sophisticated of the two. Good cocoa notes mix well with the various malts used. Aroma is slightly toasted nuts. Probably my favorite of Lakefront’s offerings, along with Fuel Cafe.

Jun 7, 2008 12oz brown bottle from The Lighthouse in Manchester as part of this brewery’s sampler 8-pack. Pours dark brown with ruby-red highlights and a half inch of light tan head. Smells like chocolate, caramel, with just the slightest hint of hops. Tastes chocolatey and nutty with smoke and fruit notes on the finish. Full bodied with ample carbonation helps make this dunkel even more drinkable. Very tasty - a really solid dunkel.

May 29, 2008 This beer poured a dark reddish colour like you find in the dirt out in the desert. Nice tan coloured head. somewhat chocolatey maltyness was obvious as well. A nice beer overall.

May 27, 2008 This really surprised me with how good it is. It’s dark copper with a big, light tan head that slowly shrinks to a permanent 1" head. The aroma is very nice, grain, dark bread, crust, hints of chocolate, caramel, and pine. The taste is similar, mostly fresh, moist whole-wheat bread, hints of earth abd pine, very light hints of caramel, herbs, and chocolate. It’s zesty but very smooth, easy to drink, yet complex and full of flavour.
