Königsberg Dunkel

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 I’ve 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.

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.

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.)

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.

Molassesy, smokey aroma. Similiar flavour with nutty, slighlty watery overtones. Golden-brown colour. Smooth body. Sweet, muscavado-accented finish.

Deep amber full-bodied lager with sweet and malty aroma, slightly caramelly and dusty palate.
