3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
16.9oz bottle 9/11/12 (Binny’s Downers Grove) 42° in Mug-Pours a darker brown with a small tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, caramel, toffee, spicesm and bloody mary mix. Taste of the same with a bit of the flavors falling off making it a light bodied brew. This beer is not too shabby and is easy to drink.
2.3 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Tart aroma--underripe cranberries. It has virtually no head, no lacing, and looks like muddy water. Has a sour, malty flavor with weak carbonation. Leaves the tongue rough. There are far better dunkels out there, and this one has little going for it.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
500ml brown bottle. Pours out amber, clear, large thick and creamy cap. Nose has milk chocolate and caramel, like a Milk Dud. Taste has mild caramel, chocolate and raisins with some tangy, lemony hops. Mild dryish finish, grains, diluted dark malts and some subtle metallic notes breifly appear. Medium body, light carbonation. Not bad, but not really what I want out of a dunkel.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Light red-amber color with a light brown foam. Big malt aroma. Light roasted malty taste with small residual sweetness.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
It smells like barley, darkmalty-sour. The taste is darkmalty, a bit sour. Overall sour, ok. 10/10/9/9/10/10
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
500 ml bottle. Pours a nice deep red copper with a twin inch tan head that lasts. Taste is of roasted malt, caramel, tea, some citrus and some hops. Similar aroma. The body is decent, slightly watery and a bit sticky sweet. The finish is slightly sweet, but mostly clean. Easy to drink and rather enjoyable, but slightly disappointing.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
0,5l bottle (5,3%). Dark copper color. Medium beige head, stays. Creamy fruity aroma. Watery, very mildly roasted. Quite unique resemblance to lambic, but all the sourness is filtered off.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pint bottle poured into a dimpled mug. Semi transparent and mid brown. The bottle gushed when opened but the beige head soon settled into little more than a ring. The nose is rich sweet malts and equally sweet dark fruit. The flavor is more gentle and subtle than the aroma. It is a nutty, malty, and there are some soft noble hops underneath. This is thin and watery both in the feel and flavor. Still, it is pleasant and sessionable.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
500ml bottle pours a dark amber color with a finger of white head that leaves a trace of lacing on the glass. Aroma is roasted grains with hints of dark fruit and a notable hop presence. Taste is quite malty sweet with some roasted malt bitterness and a mild hop bitterness in the finish. Medium bodied with some nice carbonation. A pretty decent dunkel beer, but certainly not the best.
