| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 17, 2008 Draught at Speakeasy. Another bartender recommendation gone bad. I even tasted this one before I ordered a pint but could not bring myself to say no. Boring dunkler bock here. Faint nose and flavor is malt and little else. This beer is very far from being rich.

Orangy brown color, Small head, no lace. Sweet flavor, like aroma with the caramel and chocolate being most of it. Minor citrus streak about it.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 15, 2008 Sample at Buckeye Beer Engine. This beer pours dark mahogany brown color with a thin and creamy light beige head that diminishes slowly. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of chocolate malt, caramel and dark fruits. Medium body with a malty flavor profile that has notes of chocolate and raisin. The finish is roasted malt and dark fruit but does not linger much at all.

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Dec 13, 2008 12 oz bottle. Aroma is sweet with noticible alcohol not pleasant. Flavor is smooth with a partially clean finish. A little staleness in the finish. Malt dominates the flavor profile as expected for the style. I just think the finish can be a little better. After the undesirable aroma I was expecting an bad experience but the beer is actually quite drinkable. ratman197 (3191), Arvada, Colorado, USA

Pours brown with a nice light brown head that fades to a layer of foam. Aromas of caramel, toasty malts and brown sugar. Flavor is a good balance of light toasty malt, with some brown sugar and a little bit of roast. Medium mouthfeel and carbonation. Nice and pleasant beer. jeremytoni (1091), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA
