| 1.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 3/5 | 2/10 | 1/5 | 10/20 | Apr 6, 2009 on tap @ Holiday Inn Sydney Airport.. taste is okay but very syrupy and not much roast or anything, perhaps trying to stick to the dunkel style... just not my cup of tea, too sticky for me.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 19, 2008 Updated: Jun 10, 2008Draught at the Schwartz Brewery (4.9-5.1%). I let this one warm up for about 50 minutes prior tasting. Arrived opaque with an off-white head which was average lasting. Aroma was nutty with roasted malts, creamy espresso, milk chocolate and some coco powder. Flavor was a light bitterness with roasted malts, molasses, smooth milk chocolate, hint of licorice and a nutty finish. Medium bodied with soft carbonation and a good finish. bluevegie (2224), Perth, Australia

Sweet mollasses and caramel, a little bit too sweet, especially given the palate is quite light. Some more sweet chocolate in the finish, with a touch of roasty malt, felt a little stale also. omhper (12299), Stockholm, Sweden
