Not paricularly creamy, I was expecting something a little fuller bodied due to its name. Basically a medium bodied lager with a slightly roasted character. Clean aroma but very slight. Goes down pleasantly. One of Lienie’s better offerings.

One of Leine’s better products. I would like to give it a higher rating but I just think that there is a lot of room for improvement. A nice appearence, but watery and roasty with a little something else going on. Maybe a small mocha finish but nothing to write home about. Haven’t had too many great dark lagers to be honest.

Dark brown with some tan head. Dark, but not very creamy. Interesting. At least they got the second part right. Aroma is maybe some smoked malts here and there, nothing really discernible. Taste is just nappy. Has some funky nasty vegetalness going on that no one could get into. Thin, but smooth. As Nelson would say; "this creamed beer tastes like creamed crap."

Dark brown with a reddish tinge. No head to speak of. Coffee aroma jumps out. Palate of roasted malt, hops and coffee. Not bad.

12oz Bottle: Found this beauty @ Acme in Stow, OH. I’ve been curious to try it and glad that I did. Pours a nice dark brown, almost black color - still see through though. Tan head forms quickly, but lasts all of 3 seconds, or 1 sip, whichever comes first. Very earth aroma and taste, sort of like a Guinness, but more like a watered down slightly one. No harsh alcoholic taste or anything, but has a weird sour milk aftertaste. The good outweighs the bad though. Would make a good substitute as a cheap alternative to most stouts or porter, in my opinion.

dark brown with a reddish tint/hue..whatever. head is beige, thin, mostly not lasting. aroma is a malty, but kind of sour, not even sure how to describe it. flavor is very mildly roasty, other than that, it’s not that much different from a pale lager.

Not that creamy and not that dark but goddamn if it doesn’t light my farts ablaze just the same. Quality offering, and cheap to boot. Two fists up.

very drinkable, kind of malty... reminds me of the milkshake song: my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, their life is better than yours, i could teach you but i’d have to charge.
