argo0 (6231), Washington DC, USA Nov 16, 2004 Clear, dark brown body with creamy tan head. Aroma is sweet, caramel, nutty, some bread, light anise. Taste is sweet, caramel, nutty, some bread, faint earthy. Creamy medium body, some sticky, light carbonation. Cornfield (4344), Oak Forest, Illinois, USA Apr 12, 2006 This comes across a bit thin for me. The body is a deep caramel color that reflects the sweet nose. Nice frothy beige head, while it lasts. Thin bodied, the flavor is a diluted caramel with some nutty bitterness and a light earthy hopping. The finish is watery but sweet. One could drink several of these before realizing what had happened. Hi-Time Wine Cellars, Costa Mesa CA
MoritzF (3926), Ruhrpott, Germany Sep 20, 2006 (bottle, with thanks to pivnizub) Clear, dark amber colour with a rather short foamy beige head. Slightly sweet, dark malty and slightly roasted aroma with caramel and cacao powder and dense hints of dried fruits and herbal hops. Initially sweet and moderately roast-malty taste, drying out towards the finish, which is quite bitter and roasty with caramel and notes of chocolate in the aftertaste. Slim-bodied but pretty drinkable stuff. pivnizub (3899), Porúří, Germany Nov 8, 2006 Clear, amber coloured, small and very stable head that sticks to the glass; sweetish-caramelly to malty aroma, a little fruitiness is also detectable, a distinctive touch of toasted/roasted malt as well; sweetish flavour with a little bitterness, soft MF; sweet-malty, caramelly finish with a little dash of roastmaltiness, that supports the delicate, chocolatey bitterness in the aftertaste. A decent, pleasant Dunkel, despite of its stupid name......... beerguy101 (3488), Newark, California, USA Dec 9, 2005 This dunkel pours a dark brown color from a 500ml. bottle. Medium sized white foamy head. Aroma is dark malt, caramel and sweet. A light to medium bodied dunkel. Malts are caramel, fruity and semi-sweet. Lots of chocolate and roasty malt flavor in this beer. It is perhaps a touch watery and mild in flavor, but still a very drinkable dunkel. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.
