dkachur (893), Charlottesville, Virginia, USA Aug 12, 2008 500 mL bottle from Once Upon a Vine in Richmond, VA. Pours a cola brown color, with well, cola-like head. Vigorous carbonation. This really looks exactly like Coca-Cola in a glass, just a shade darker. Slightly grainy roasted malt aroma. Roasted malt taste with dark fruit and coffee notes. Very bubbly. drewbeerme (1840), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jun 9, 2008 bottle. pours brown with creamy beige head. aroma is toasty with hints of milk chocolate and banana. chocolately flavor notes, lightly toasted, banana, and plum. palate is thin and short. not bad at all just pretty watery. DrBayern (977), Morehead City, North Carolina, USA Jan 26, 2008 50 cl bottle on 1/26/2008. Pours out a dark, hazy, ruby brown under a creamy medium head and spare, slippery lace. Slightly smoky aroma, roasted nuts, and some coffee/chocolate in the distance. Medium body and carbonation, fairly dry palate. Some burnt sugar balanced by a soft bitterness. Easy drinking with a lightly dry finish. dmtroyer (370), Harrisonburg, Virginia, USA Sep 28, 2007 500ml. Dark brown with maybe the slightest tinge of ruby, slightly disappointing head. Fairly distinctive dunkelweizen with more carbonation than I am used to, bitter chocolate, and maybe a bit of sour yeast or clove that actually does very well. alexanderj (1340), San Diego, California, USA Jun 13, 2007 Bottle; poured a dark chocolate brown with a very light brown. Aroma of caramel and chocolate. Flavor was much of the same, only a light sweetness. Very easy on the palate. Didnt pick up on any smoke or coffee like the description says. Some light hops in the finish. Good mouthfeel. For 1.99 this was a good value and a solid beer.
