Jan 9, 2008 One of the most perfect examples of a Dunkle you can find, this is how you brew a ’complex’ beer without resulting in a muddled mess. like the description brags, "malty taste with a hint of plum-fruitiness" delicious!

Mar 31, 2007 Poured from a 500 ml bottle. Wonderful malty aroma with dark rosey amber presence. Delightfully full body with tones of toffee and carmel. Served with fresh homemade pretzels and whole grain mustard - a wonderful treat.

Nov 26, 2006 16.9 oz. bottle. Sweet, oily, slightly plummy classic German dunkel aroma. Bright, sparkling, gold-tinged brown color. Moderate amount of fluffy beige head. Surprisingly tart, hoppy flavor for a malt-oriented brew, and that’s great for a hops lover like me. Very interesting, unique malt flavor that I can’t put my finger on but that I really enjoy. Excellent flavors could stand to be a little stronger. Very crisp, fizzy, and satisfying to the palate and very drinkable. I am pleasantly surprised at just how tasty this beer is, given that malty German brown lagers aren’t my favorite style. This is probably the best dunkel that I have ever had.

May 16, 2006 Poured from a bottle into a lager glass, this gem developed a lasting, creamy, tan head. Close examination of the body revealed a gorgeous deep chestnut hue that was clear and bubbly. Initially the aroma had a short burst of hops, but the specifics escaped me before the aroma morphed into a rich caramel-like maltiness. Shortly thereafter I also smelled a tiny bit of fruit. Much to my surprise, this had one of the most dynamic aromas I’ve experienced in a beer. The taste was crisp and a little spicy with some smoother, sweeter malts for balance. I could be going crazy, but I also thought I noticed the slightest bit of smoked malts in the finish. The beer was medium- bodied and very refreshing. I’ll have this one again for sure!

Nov 11, 2005 Poured with a thick, lasting head and a deep coffee color. Tasted of molasses and as the description said, plums. The beer was highly enjoyable, and finished without a bitter finish.
