does not count daviddeep99 (9), New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Mar 18, 2002 Totally unremarkable beer, and not worth the money when compared to any of Schell’s more upmarket brews. Dark in color, bland in taste.
esjaygee (820), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA Sep 18, 2008 Light brown with a tiny white head. Aroma of dark malt, light toasted malt and mild nuts. Watery body has some caramel and dark malt properties to it and is too astringent for a dunkel, more like an American Dark Lager to me. kosko20 (143), Bemidji, Minnesota, USA Aug 23, 2008 Decent brew, wasn’t expecting much and got what I expected. Aroma is yeast and barley, balanced nicely but doesn’t make you want to drink it. The appearance tho is fantastic, dark red/brown with a thick off white head. Flavor is malty with kind of boring barley, yeast and hops. Palate is also boring, no finish feel except slightly dry. Nothing I’ll ever drink again but was decent. cheapdark (1606), Monacatootha, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 10, 2008 Updated: Sep 5, 2008Interestingly, this is in a clear 12 oz bottle with a twist off cap. Pour is like root beer. Has a very yeasty aroma with possibly some malt olfactory too. Good initial carbonation. Malty flavors on the first taste. Flavor is quite interesting and there does not seem to be any offensive hop bitterness. The taste buds seem to pick up mostly malty and alky flavors, taste seems to have much more alky in it than the 4.8% listed here. Finish is somewhat roasty without being over the top and that alky malty hint hangs for a while after the session. phishpond417 (1459), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA Jun 15, 2008 Pours a dark semi clear brown colour with a medium sized tan head. Head is quick to dissapear, leaving behind little lacing. Almonds, oak and raisins on the nose. Taste is lighter then i expected. Lacks a solid mouthfeel, slightly watery on the palate. moelikebeer (140), New Brighton, Minnesota, USA May 14, 2008 Bottle. Clear, light brown/dark amber pour with a medium head. Faint aroma of roasted malt and nut. Flavor of roasted malt; slightly sweet, though not much else going on. Light body and pretty drinkable. OK beer.
