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.

Clear red-brown body with a finger of creamy off white head. Light burnt caramel, a bit of fruitiness in the aroma. The taste is similar with big scorched sugar up front, sweet with a nice fruity finish.

Bottle from BevMo. A nice dunkel, not that I’ve really had enough dunkels to know what a good one is. Copper color with a small off-white head. Sweet malty aroma. Flavor is sweet malt, caramel, and sweet plum at the finish. Nice smooth mouthfeel with a medium body.

Pours a dark reddish brown. Very smooth, with some roasted malt flavor. A very nice, rich beer. Thumbs way up...

Sample courtesy of Jbo. Pours a clear dark amber with a ring of off-white head. Sweet plum on the nose, with lots of soy sauce and raisin in the flavor. Okay, but possibly oxidized and didn’t really do anything for me.
