Apr 29, 2007 Pours out dark with a tiny head. Lots of cola and sweet malty flavors. Honestly this beer is delicious. This beer isn’t going to knock your socks off or test your hop threshold but it’s absolutely tastey and I like it a great deal.

Oct 24, 2005 Light, sort of watery dunkel. A poor representation of the style. Lacked much taste and much oomph.

Oct 17, 2005 A rather light dunkel. I was expecting something a little heavier for the style. NIce dark color but the aroma and flavor lacked the malty kick that I was expecting. Still a good beer, but i was hoping for more.

Jul 11, 2005 I just love the pull tab cap on this 500ml bottle. Dark brown, though clear. Nice dense tan head that collapses to a ring. The aroma is baking bread, light bit of caramel and chocolate. The flavor is nutty with caramel and chocolate. Definte hints of root beer though I am not getting any vanilla as several previous raters have mentioned. Fairly thick mouthfeel, are almost all Eggenberg’s pretty thick? Decent enough, though the Capital Dunkel I had the other day is way better.

Jul 6, 2005 Pull tab cap, reminds me of popping open a Mickey’s grenade back in the day. Yikes. This luckily tastes a lot better. Dark brown, touch of red, decent head fades slow. Aroma is bread and chocolate. Flavor is matching, with a bit of straight up malt and some caramel. Decent stuff for those who like a thicker dunkel.

Jun 8, 2005 Bottle with a pull tab cap. That’s a new one for me. Pours dark ruby-laden brown with a small foamy tan head. Nose is caramel, sweet malts, light vanilla, and some light maple notes. Taste is vanilla, caramel, creamy sweet malts, and some light root beer notes that have been previously mentioned. Body is light-medium with minimal carbonation feel. Finishes sweet with light cola, vanilla, caramel and sweet malts. Not bad at all!

May 6, 2005 500 ml. brown, longneck, tall bottle. Freshness date of 07/2005 on back label. Poured out a root beer color, with an off white, loose head. The head left some lacing, but not a lot. Aromas are of colas, vanilla, and some root beer.
Flavors are more of a soda than a beer. Root beer & vanilla cola comes to mind. Medium mouthfeel, goes down too easily.

Aug 30, 2003 Small head with little lacing. Dark copper color. Toffee-like aroma. Sweet, malty highly carbonated taste. Cloying finish.
