Jan 1, 2004 Cooked caramel aroma on a dark red beer. Light-bodied with a caramel-sugar-alcohol sense with slight roastiness. Smooth with little carbonation.

Nov 29, 2003 it's mr. nikolausbier to me, the dunkel supposedly made without dark malts. it's cloudy and chaff-laden as any unfiltered hefe wiezen, a worn pecan golden orange pour with a variable camel colored head. one bottle one night had a vivacious head, the next bottle another night, the head slipped into a coma with a "do not resusitate" order. both concurred on an autumn leaf mulch aroma, though, fruited plains and amber waves of grain, toffee and woody tones. brisk carbonation and rather light bodied; wine sap earthy sweetness tries in an unconvincing way to mimic chocolate. hops whisper from the back row and are missed unless your tongue knows just where to look. so to speak.

Nov 24, 2003 This is quickly becoming my favorite style. This brew is a wonderful deep mohagony color with nice frothy head out of the bottle. (Not as dark as the photo there). The aroma is most pleasant and nutty. The flavor is smooth and nutty. Not overly sweet at all. Malts rule here, but the Hallertauers add a nice bite at the end.

Nov 21, 2003 Nice aroma with some hops and citrus to it. I found the appearance to be pleasingly caramel. The flavor is on the sweet side, but pleasant.

Nov 1, 2003 Aroma is chocolatey. Appearance is brown. Flavor is mostly sweet and slightly syrupy with a definite chocolate and caramel flavor. This is a very nice beer although it is a little sticky sweet. This is beer's answer to a Yoo-Hoo chocolate drink.

Oct 28, 2003 Nice dark brown brown with a distinct reddness with a touch of haziness. This isn't as carbonated as the Roggenbier and the Hell, but it's still lively and the head forms easily, but fades quickly. The flavor is a bit bready or cakey and the middle reminds me a little of wood. Lightly sweet, but sweet isn't the first impression. Even though the flavor doesn't really wow me, I keep reaching back for more. This is a good dunkel and that's all there is to it. The mouthfeel is lively with a good sting of carbonation on the tongue.
