brown, fizzy, short lived head. Much better once warmed. Nice blend of sweet fruit and malt flavors with balancing degree of carbonation. Finishes clean, mostly sweet. cking (1019), North Canton, Ohio, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Oct 22, 2007 Solid Dunkel from Ayinger, of course I was pretty sure it would be since they have yet to let me down. Aroma has a warming buttery, smokey, milk chocolate thing going on with a good bread quality. Dark brown pour with a thick creamy lasting head, and good lacing. Filling and silky to the palate, this drinks with great ease. Very tasty with numerous layers of flavor. Fresh buttered bread and burnt molasses, chocolate malt, red grapes and over ripened bananas. Top notch lager. footy (334), scottsdale, Arizona, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 18, 2007 I prefer way more roast and toast in my dunkels, and although this is supposedly one of the best examples of the style , I found the aroma and flavor to be far too scotchy sweet for my liking. altonbrownd (1889), Amsterdam, Netherlands

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 2, 2007 Tap at Ayinger resturant in Munich on 9-29-07. The menu called it the "old dark Bavarian". Dark clear chestnut with tan head. Bready, yeast, woody, roasty aroma. Lively carbonation and medium body, but a little thinner than I expected. Not as sweet and malty as the festbier. More mellow and full roastiness. moderate bitter finish. Not too impressed. rocbyter (910), Waterbury, Connecticut, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 24, 2007 Pours copper with small fizzy head. Aroma is malts with a little sweetness. Mouthfeel is a little too carbonated. Flavor is malts with a little bit of wheat. Good brew. Not Ayinger’s best, though.
