| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 28, 2008 Bottle. Very small tan head that fully lasted, splotchy amounts of lacing, transparent, carbonation observed, and a reddish orange hue. The aroma was malt, caramel, sweet, and some breadiness. Ditto for the flavor. Slightly tingly mouthfeel and mediuim bodied. Quaffable, very easy to drink, did not get any roasty aroma or flavor, nothing truly special given the style, better to be had of this style, and a beer that is easy to forget IMO.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | May 21, 2008 Updated: May 24, 2008Bottled. Pretty good. Fairly well developed except for a thin short finish that reminded me of orange juice? Very easy to drink. Colour, aroma and initial taste were spot on for a dunkel bock. patrick767 (2051), fort wayne, Indiana, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 18, 2008 bottle - Pours clear, dark amber with a thin white head. The mild aroma is mainly of roast malt. The flavor is again mostly sweet roast malt with just a little toffee in there, but the character of the malt in this one didn’t really do it for me. It seems kind of off. I’m left with the impression of a simple, light brew that’s adequate, but that’s it. BorksBabe (81), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 1.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 2/10 | 2/5 | 4/20 | May 3, 2008 Aroma is of yeast and barley, some hops. Dark reddish brown with a small head. Tastes like the name.... a bitter, polluted lakefront. Not good. DWestrick (244), Ft Wayne, Indiana, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 23, 2008 12 oz bottle. Deep amber brown beer. Aroma is quite sweet and fresh. Nice breadiness with a lot of caramelly character. A hint of brown sugar and a lingering doughy maltiness. Nice sweetness, good rich palate with even more toastiness on the back. A bit of sweet plumminess and a clean yeast profile. Nice brew. WabashMan (817), Noblesville, Indiana, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 19, 2008 A nice bock, this brew starts with a medium, reddish brown pour and a nicely balanced nose. Flavor is lightly sweet and roasty, with a good malt character and a bit of hops bitterness. Improves as it warms. KAF (441), Coralville, Iowa, USA
