Jun 23, 2007 Well, the last three dunkels I’ve had are all good stuff, this at the top, probably THE top of all dunkels tasted by me. Appearance was clear coppery brown, nice two finger head, great retention, solid lacing. The aroma was bread, light earthiness, nuts, some roast. The flavor was firm and pleasing nuts, roasted malts, coffee, finishing with a touch of bready/earthy/slightly grassy dryness. Some fruity tones appear on the tongue after the dry roasted nuts and coffee leave, but not firmly so. The mouthfeel was moderate for the style. A dunkel rich in flavor, depth like a schwarz, but lighter and more drinkable as a dunkel. Nice stuff, Aying.

Jan 13, 2007 Dark reddish brown with a creamy head that diminshed quickly. Rich raisin bread and caramel aromas. Rough and biting entry with pronounced malt and a spicy hoppy finish.

Oct 1, 2008 Nice designed Bottle 50cl. Pours a red-brown clear brew with a huge dense head. Appearance is amazing, top score here! Roasted malt taste is dominant, but there is no disturbing sweetness. Hops decent, a very balanced brew. Highly recommendable for dark beer lovers.

Sep 16, 2005 Big tan, creamy head over beautifully dark red/purple body. Aroma of very sweet malts, with notes of syrup and hay. Nice. The taste is again very sweet and malty, but is soon dominated by a smoky hay-like flavour, which lingers and fades. Subtle, yet complex, and very
interesting. An excellent lager!

May 11, 2005 Updated: Dec 21, 2006Rich caramel aroma. Really quite sweet in terms of initial flavors. Dense, bready malts with some chocolate and a bit of coffee and smoke towards the finish. Great stuff, one of my favorite brews from Ayinger.

Jan 17, 2007 bottle shared with brie... Pour is dark red with a small off white head that lightly clings to the glass. The flavor is all molasses and coffee. The carbonation and alcohol make the mouthfeel crisp, and the finish is all sweet malt. I loved this one. It is different than other dunkels that I have had. I will purchase this tasty beer again.

May 9, 2006 500 ml bottle - Poured up a very deep amber color with about half an inch of creamy off white head. The head was slow to diminish so I drank it. Nice lacing was left on the glass. The aroma was of sweet malt and a hint of spice. The taste is lightly sweet and finishes with a tang that may come from the carbonation. Very clean aftertaste. Nice brew.
