Taverner (825), San Ramon, California, USA Feb 9, 2009 Aroma is must and a little sweetness from the malts. Flavor is full on Dunkel - seems like a pretty standard representation of the style. Notes of nuttiness, wood and a little smoke. Very light in the hop department - but still a nice dry finish. Pours auburn/brown with white head. tmoreau (525), Lombard, Illinois, USA Feb 8, 2009 11.2 oz bottle from home reserve, gift six. Poured a clear, brown/walnut color, with an off white, bubbly head that diminished to a small ring pretty fast, leaving some light lace. Malty and sweet nose with a little toast, bread, nuts, and caramel. The taste is as mellow as the aroma, with mild caramel, toast and nutty notes. Just some light hop bitterness. It is what it is. Light bodied and quaffable. Okay. alraicercsu (166), Ft.Collins, Colorado, USA Jan 26, 2009 Bottle. Poures a dark dark red/brown. Smells nutty with a slight roast. Tastes the same but ends some what watery. ljstephenson (111), Lawton, Oklahoma, USA Jan 25, 2009 Nutty start, slightly roasted, light and smooth, but alcohol appears unbalanced, beer ends with a water finish. lowg (123), Scarborough, Ontario, Canada Jan 17, 2009 500 ml can, LCBO. Pours copper brown. Straight up grainy aroma. Malty flavour with a touch of bitterness in the end. Pretty decent. rader58 (164), Leawood, Kansas, USA Jan 15, 2009 Pours dark brown with slight red hues. Aroma of malt and grain. Taste of grain with slight sweetness to finish. altacyr (144), Campinas, Brazil Jan 8, 2009 Aroma suave de malte. Coloração entre o café e o mate.
