Jul 14, 2009 Bottle as shown. Pours a clear amber with a small light tan head that diminishes quickly leaving behind decent spotty lacing on the glass. The aroma is malt and caramel and light fruit. Medium mouthfeel with a caramel malt with raisin with a nice dry finish. Hides the alcohol well making it easy to drink, a good dunkler bock from Sam Adams.

Jul 11, 2009 Reviewed 6/29/2009 (bottle BB SEP 09):
Pours a clear red colored body, with a big foamy tannish color head, lasting. Aroma of malty sweetness, some fruitiness, dark. Some spiciness and roast too. Some caramel and roasted aromas. Creamy mouthfeel, roasted flavor. With a nice aftertaste, somewhat toasty, not overpoweringly roasted. Almost nutty, but not quite. Nice flavors, some dark grape. Tasty and refreshing, just what I was looking for!
