Ughsmash (3981), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA Oct 20, 2007 Bottled as Königsberg Dark. Poured clear medium copper with a taller, well-retained off-white head. The aroma picked up a whole great deal of sweetness that Ive come to expect from Eastern-European lagers.. toasty caramel, some chocolate, and sweet floral.. I really enjoyed it. The flavor was a bit too sweet, lacking a bit of substance.. caramel and light, sweet chocolate at the core with light herbal and coffee bitterness fairly well-integrated in there.. very sweet and short finish. Lighter-bodied and sweet on the palate.. dry and a little tacky on the finish. Solid stuff. SSSteve (2047), Atlanta, Georgia, USA Oct 7, 2007 dark caramel color and small head. aroma of caramel malt and nuts. toasty malts and caramel dominate the flavor with a little alcohol. medium bodied. larsga (2937), Oslo, Norway Sep 7, 2006 Biggish offwhite fine-laced head over red-brown body with ongoing carbonation. Sweet roasty caramelly aroma with some cinnamon. Impressively harmonic. Some earthiness as well. Taste is light earthy caramel and some paper. Lingering, papery stale taste. A decent dunkel. (0.5l bottle.) TBone (6675), Pori, Finland Apr 3, 2005 Bottled
Nut brown, small brown head. Fresh lemony (dishwater) nose. Malty but light sweetish palate. Not much dunkel-like, more like a pale lager in the taste and a vienna in outlook. Sugary aftertaste. Oakes (8058), gone rambling, Vietnam Aug 18, 2004 Molassesy, smokey aroma. Similiar flavour with nutty, slighlty watery overtones. Golden-brown colour. Smooth body. Sweet, muscavado-accented finish. Boystout (900), Chisinau, Moldova Jul 27, 2004 Deep amber full-bodied lager with sweet and malty aroma, slightly caramelly and dusty palate.
