Feb 23, 2007 Poured from a well-chilled 12 oz bottle. Deep brown or crimson with a bare whisper of a off-white foamy head that virtually disappeared after 10 seconds. Aroma? Not much ... a virtual whimper to the olfactory senses ... roasted barley, maybe a slight swirl of fresh pine. Thankfully, the flavor is more entertaining ... moderately robust with some dark cherry, bitter chocolate, and a bitter finish. Good. (#2724, 2/23/2007)

Feb 13, 2004 The head was a light tan and a bit creamy. Aroma at first reminded me of spicy apples. Then it was just spicy. The body was a very dark ruby red. The flavor was spicy, a little sweet and felt warm. At first this beer tasted great, but quickly I was desiring something else.

Jan 8, 2002 Deep brown color; non-existent head; Grapey aroma. Heavy burnt malt flavors attack you right away. Small amount of brown sugar. Slight sour notes at mid-glass (bile?). Palate is strange- thin upfront but heavy feeling at back of throat. An uneven beer.

Dec 23, 2007 Bottle... Clear, deep, dark, mahogany lager with a small, creamy, white head. Chocolaty, nutty bouquet presents subtle notes of coconut, pistachio, cashew, cola and vanilla. Smells more like brown ale than a dunkler bock. The flavor is thin, but follows suit with observations of chocolate, cola and nuts with a touch of vanilla. Surprisingly, leans just a tad on the bitter side of balance. Medium-bodied and watery with lively carbonation. Lengthy, bitter, mouth-drying finish.
