| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jan 11, 2009 Bottle. Malty aroma with caramel and a little fruit. Deep dark reddish body, small off-white head. Flavor is deliciously malty, with some roastiness and caramel sweetness. There is bitterness in the finish. Very good Dunkel.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 10, 2009 <i>12oz bottle:</i> Chocolatey-brown pour with a soft beige head that leaves instantly. A nice balance of ripe bananas and bready malt greets the nose. Very simple, but effective. Medium bodied, the malts display a nice biscuity profile, with undertones of baked bread and sweet chocolate. The yeast gets lost here though, so there is little contribution that I can detect. Finishes sweet with a touch of grassy bitterness. Solid example. nathan30533 (158), Dahlonega, Georgia, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 4, 2009 Pours a very dark brown with a lite brown/white forming head. Looks creamy at first but not so smooth. Leaves a bit of a bitter taste to the mouth so I’m not all that on the palate. Good overall for me but im not the dunkel type. zach8270 (2129), Henrietta, New York, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 27, 2008 (bottle - 12 oz) Ruby red pour with a very puffy and lasting 1/4 inch tan head. Aroma is light and chocolaty with a very pronounced maltiness. Flavor is rather roasty with some hints of malt, caramel, toffee, and very light coffee. Thin bodied but pretty tasty. maugus4ever (121), Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA

Chocolaty and malty aroma with a taste to match. Nice roasty flavor with a very slight hop finish. Not bad. smjohnst (203), , Pennsylvania, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Dec 24, 2008 A decent beer but it definitely tastes like an imitation of the original. A nice lager to drink though. morrdt (608), Jacksonville, Florida, USA

Average beer, drinks easy with a bit of roasted taste, but nothing more to it than that. Has a lot of work to do to be a good beer. emacgee (1892), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA
