Had on tap at dunleaveys. Pours a dark red, some what good head. Smells faintly of fruit and skunkyness. Tasted a bit of caramel. It was just ok.

Dark and mildly toasted flavor malty and different. A nice change from the usual Warsteiner with the same high quality.

500 ml can. pours very dark red with a small of white head. aromas are weak with some roastyness coming through after it warmed. flavours are thin and forgetable. no real problems but nothing to rave about.

Smooth with a medium feel and roasty malt flavor over all. Nice body. Malt in the nose, but not much else. In a session, with a meal, very good. Unremarkable overall. Quality but without distinction. Props for being easy to find.

Bottle: A burnt sienna color with a quickly diminishing light brown head. Through my August allergies, I noticed up on aromas of sweet malts like polished shoe leather with a thin coating of sorghum. The feel is thin and pleasant. The taste isn’t spectacular, but not bad either. It is refreshing and has a wheatty aftertaste. It seemed to have lots of carbonation. I would prefer a little more in the initial aftertaste. It is like you have to wait about 15 seconds before you are invited to take another drink. I like the invitation right away and then if you resist, to have it followed by the lingering aftertaste. Dunkels are to light for my tastes, but I can enjoy one every now and then.

Here the trademark Warsteiner graininess works to better effect. While the body is a bit thin, the toasted flavors come out rather nicely to make for an enjoyable (though perhaps not thrilling) dunkel.

Poured somewhere between dark copper and brown. The head was white to off-white and was one-finger tall. Quickly dissipating, it left no lacing. The aroma was mild chocolate, sweet malt and even a bit of grape soda. The flavor was light chocolate, roasted, nutty malt and again a tiny bit of that grape soda. The mouthfeel was actually nice and the finish was clean. Drinkable if unremarkable.

Bottle: A darker version of the original Warsteiner, falls bit short on overall taste and I would expect more body from a dunkel, too light.
