| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 21, 2009 Bottle: Poured a clear dark brown/burgundy color dunkel with a nice light brown foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of roasted malt with some caramel and light molasses is enjoyable. Taste is also a nice mix between some medium sweet malt with some nice notes of caramel malt and some very subtle molasses and a light dry roasted finish. Average body with good carbonation. Very well done but I am not sure this is a style that I really dig. Grossecaisse (108), France

Tastes of caramel, biscuit, and apple. Has a tinny finish. Whole experience reminds me caramel popcorn. hirigalzkar (563), Stockholm, Sweden

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 28, 2008 Pours a clear mahogany color, with a foamy head, moderate lace - semi-sweet aroma of caramel and roasted malts, some toffee and raisin - nice and smooth in the mouth - slightly grainy, medium sweet, with a background tinge of roast and nuttiness - gets a little sweeter through the middle, with notes of caramel and chocolate - finishes with a moderate hop bite - lingering doughy character - overall a very tasty, clean, smooth german beer. alexanderj (2227), Chino Hills, California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 26, 2008 Bottle, sampled at Christmas during family beer tasting. Color was dark brown with a tan or beige head. Aroma of bread, sweet malt, fruit and caramel. Flavor was much of the same, with sweet tones, caramel, fruit and a hint of raisins. Overall it was a pretty enjoyable beer. Beerman6686 (1280), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 24, 2008 POured a dark brown color with almost no head? Aroma was really sweet and malty, hints of chocolate and roasted malts come through. Flavor was really dull, just plain sweet dunkel, nothing oustanding here, also a bit metallic as well.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Dec 12, 2008 From a 0.5 L bottle purchased locally. Aroma is full of malt and a slight hint of coffee. Color is a deep rust amber with a beige head. Smooth malt with some melanoidin character. I taste a little bit of cardboard from probably being on the shelf too long. A little sweetness but balanced nicely with a dry finish. This one is good, but I wish I could have a better bottle because I know this beer could be fantastic.
