May 24, 2006 American Beer in Brooklyn had just one of these botlles sitting next to the register. The label is different and in English. Pours watery dark brown with a very small head. The aroma is corny, malty and alcoholic. The taste started out bad but as it warmed noticed lots of coffee in the end of the flavor. Still the body was thin and ad a cheap malty backbone. I was disgusted at first but it grew on me as it warmed.

Bottle at GBBF. Dark chestnut colour with a head that fell pretty quickly. Smoky sweet malt and a little fatty. Slightly oily and a bit of caramel. Authentic dunkel but nothing too special.
