| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 15/20 | Dec 17, 2005 Well I sure was surprised to see this is also the dunkel. I’d sure peg it as a schwarz. Pours a very dark purplish red, small head, very bubbly in the glass. Aroma of sweet chocolate, hints of cinnamon and pecan pie. Flavor more caramelized, with some bittersweet chocolate. A bit over-carbonated, with a carbonic bite/twang. Could be smoother. Eyedrinkale (3209), Astoria, New York, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Dec 15, 2005 Draft @ Hop Devil Grill. Really malty, roasted aroma with cereal. Taste is weirdly hoppy with a lively carbonation. Flavors of lightly buttered toast, fresh grains, nuts and sugary sweetness. Not bad but I wouldn’t go back for a full pint. demitriustown (698), Shelby Township, Michigan, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 9, 2005 Rather clear brownish black color with medium tan head. This has a very roasted nutty aroma to it with some hoppiness included. Malty taste with notes of caramelization, coffee, and a carbonated bubbly finish. I liked this Dukel though it was deceptively labeled as a Schwartzbier. Next thing you know I’ll find a pale lager in a bottle labeled Imperial Stout, because it’s "Sexier". Fish (439), Kure, Japan
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 5, 2005 Pours a nice deep brown with a quickly dissipating tan head. Nutty, coffee aroma, with perhaps a little bit of fruit. Flavor is of coffee with sweeter caramel notes. Palate is fairly lively. RazingDreamz (123), North Carolina, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Dec 5, 2005 Dark brown color, not much head. Overwhelming roasty coffee aroma with some chocolate. Taste is of dark chocolate, butterscotch, and finishes like caramel. A little thin for my taste. mctous (119), Herndon, Virginia, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 16, 2005 Surprisingly yeasty aroma for a lager. Pours with a slight, short-lived head. Light body, sweet without being syrupy, minimal hops, but plenty of yeast. Soft palate with a very clean finish. Davhgbrew (418), Boca Raton, Florida, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Nov 12, 2005 Nice flavored brew! The palate is a little thin, but the flavor isn’t overly malty like I was expecting. An overall unexciting brown ale tasting beer. barleyPops (1079), Quad-Cities, Illinois, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 31, 2005 A German beer in honor and memory of Dortmunder. I drank this one tonight and thought what better way to honor Robert than to re-print his rating of the beer.
Bottled. Dark red/brown colour. Almost no head and no lace at all. Nutty, roastmalty aroma with a hint of liquorice and coffee. Flat, roastmalty taste ending in a nut-bitter finish. Lightbodied and slightly bland. Not enough carbonation, too, therefore underscoring the watery and lightbodied palate-impressions.
Wellsaid, Robert, you will be missed.
