Aug 2, 2006 Gigantic bubbly tan-colored head that leaves foam on the glass and finally settles into a thick layer of microscopic bubbles. A cascade of bubbles rose up in a steady stream from the bottom of the glass. Aroma is predominantly wheat, but is balanced with sweet, malty and slightly hoppy elements. Wheat, malt, yeast, and spices are the main components of the flavor, with hints of hops and fruit.

Jul 7, 2006 Bottle in the Erdinger Christmas gift pack from the <a href=http://www.lcbo.com target=blank>LCBO in Peterborough. Deep brown - near black - in colour, long lasting tan coloured head, awesome lace. The aroma was quite malty, earthy, some chocolate, roasty. The flavour was creamy, some earth, toffee, light bananas, light roast. Lightly bitter mouthfeel, light body, medium carbonation. Finishes with a bit of fruit, smooth, lingering.

Jul 3, 2006 500ml bottle served in a long tall World Cup glass at Blå Rock Cafe in Tromsø while watching Start vs TIL. Very nice appearance. Hazy dark brown. Sweet malts in a rather hard-to-pick-aroma. Flavour of dark fruit with light notes of yeast. Medium palate, but far from powerful.

Jul 2, 2006 16.9 oz. Bottle. Pours a dark red color with a good head and lacing. It has a kind of a weird sour nose. The flavor is smooth and bready with no banana or clove and slightly roasted. Smooth and clean finish. Not what I expected.

Jun 21, 2006 A reasonably good Dunkel, I was a tad disappointed in the head which initially lasted well, but after my first mouthful fizzled away to nowt but a single-bubble thick covering, nice dark colour tho’ Slightly spicy palate with more than a hint of clean acidity on the finish, a refreshing beer. I’m not a great fan of the standard Erdinger, which I find a bit bland, and although I found this to be a bit better, you can get MUCH better for around the same amount of cash...this was from Asda,Carlisle and was about £1.70-80.
