| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Apr 14, 2008 Pours a dark opaque reddish brown color. The head is about 1-finger light tan. The aroma is dark roasted malts. Molasses and raisins. Taste is pretty mild. Some caramel, prunes, with a slight toasted bitterness. Mouthfeel is light, yet creamy. Leaves a slight burnt bitter flavor. Very drinkable, but not anything too special. sfontain (508), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Mar 23, 2008 Dark, clear, reddish brown (almost garnet); initially a large, frothy, eggshell to tan head that becomes a ring but can be easily resurrected by swirling. Light aroma; bready malt with some nuttiness and not much else, sadly. Flavor fairly light, also; similar to aroma with the addition of some caramel; finish is barely bitter at all. Frothy mouthfeel; lightly sticky. Overall, nice appearance and mouthfeel, but the flavor and particularly the aroma are bland. Guinness4Duff (507), Tallahassee (and Poconos, PA), Florida, USA

Has a sweet flavor, mild chocolate and nut accents and some mild bitterness. Not bad. oldpainless (35), fort mill, South Carolina, USA

It has a bit of a sweet taste & more aftertaste than I want but all in all most fair. I like warsteiner dunkel much better though.. DWestrick (247), Ft Wayne, Indiana, USA
