Commercial Description:
Dark chocolate in color, you can see a wonderful reflection if you hold it up to the light. It is round and soft with the warm, sweet aroma of freshly roasted malted barley. A satisfying, malty taste, with coffee-ish tones and a hint of plummy fruitiness in the finish. Complex and beautifully balanced.

Malty aromas of roasted nuts, chocolate, and some coffee. Good looking dark brown with a fluffy tan head. Tasty flavors of chocolate, roasted malt, coffee, and some caramel. Cramy mouthfeel and finished smooth. A very good Dunkel.

~Sweet malt aroma, hints of chocolate and caramel. ~Pours a copper color, very clear, with small off white head. ~Rich malty flavor. Bready, some carmel, malty throughout. ~Medium full bodied, creamy, moderate carbonation.. ~Enjoyable brew. Heavier, but still refreshing. nicely sweetened without being overly cloying.

Dark brown pour. Tan head. Dark dried fruit, caramel, grains and some honey on the nose. Flavor is yeasty and malty as hell. Smooth and a touch of sweetness. Easy drinking here.

Pours a clear dark tawny to walnut color with a medium sized, frothy head. The aroma has a lot of coffee, toffee, some grain, and a touch of dark fruit. The flavor is similar, but with a buttery toffee and dark fruit finish. Medium-light bodied with light carbonation. Complex and drinkable.
