Smooth and mild, with an understated but complex malt character. Not an overly sweet dunkel, more of a deep rich malt feast. Very pleasant beer, would love to have it on draft.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Sep 15, 2007 Pours an extremely dark ruby with a tan head that rises and does not stick around long but leaves a thick lacing on the way down. Nose is almost like old wood. Like a cleaned out old attic. Dusty and void of life. A mild bit of malt character there, but not a whole lot. Flavor is smooth and even. Nothing real crazy going on here. Thin malt influence. Has the body, but not a lot of character to follow. Feel is standard. A bit thin really. Drinkable, sure. It is a decent brew. Nice to try. But no home run to run back to. zebracakes (1214), Washington DC, USA

Nice aroma, some yeast but also very definate raosted overtones there and good bitter chocolate.

Roasted malts, treacle and almonds all play a role in the taste. Medium bodied, balanced and pleasantly bitter. Very good. Thank You Radek Kliber. downender (2580), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England
