Jul 9, 2007 Bottle. Pears on syrup in the aroma. Malty flavor with caramel and pear, flowing into a slight caramelly bitter aftertaste. Not too well balanced and a bit too sweet.

Apr 12, 2007 Sweet rich beer, close to cloying at times, chocolate, caramel, cereal, and candy cherry. Lots of flavors in the malts keep it interesting with a lot of roasty and nutty flavors. Palate is thick and heavy, chewy towards the finish. Pours muddy brown with a soapy off-white head.

Mar 1, 2007 Pours a murky orangey brown color, a decent initial head, weak lacing, pretty boring appearance. Aroma was strong caramel and some chocolate. Flavor was sickly sweet caramel, chocolate notes, molasses, sticky. Only a slight detection of some grassy hops, otherwise this isn’t finishing lager crisp at all. A miserable representation of what Germany can do.

Feb 27, 2007 Also found this one at Stateline in Md. Pours a nice deepamber/woody brown with light carbonation and a lasting small head. Aroma is nutty, grainy, toasted malts, light chocolate, some caramel and a light herbal and slightly metallic hops. Ok grainy flavor, a bit weak overall even for a dunkel, light malts, somewhat stale, soem light hops in the end. Mouthfeel was a bit weak and not as rounded or smooth as many other higher quality german dunkels like Ayinger.

Feb 21, 2007 Bottle from State Line. Pours hazy deep brown with 1-finger tan head. Aroma of heavy Wheaties, nuts, some tannins and brown sugar. Tastes richly malty, like a bowl of Wheaties, with some figs, nuts, ovaltine. Fairly dense palate, and not sweet.
