Draft - A nice Dunkel. After I let it warm a bit the roasted malt flavors came through. Not the best I’ve had, but good.

Decent but nothing special. The taste does not quite live up to the smell, though. Has an odd grainy bitter taste that I can’t quite place. Very light bodied and not quite as "chewy" as other dunkels I’ve had. Watery, underflavored finish. A little caustic?

On tap at the Flying Saucer in KC. Pours a clear, very deep reddish brown body with a finger-width, creamy, tan head that dissipates quickly and leaves a light lacing. Aroma is semi-sweet caramels and lots of fruits. Has a distinct lager yeast smell as well. Similar flavor. Slightly metallic and tastes like a lager with a more nutty, deeper caramel taste. Very sweet with lots of nuts and fruits as well. Just a light amount of chocolate and semi-bitter roast comes in at the end with plenty of sweet fruits and malts lingering in the aftertaste. Dry, light bodied, and just a touch of carbonation keeps this very smooth. Overall, can’t really complain about this one. Nothing exceptional at all, but tasty enough.

500ml can, pours dark clear ruddy brown with bit of white head, active carbonation but not extreme. Smells lightly of darker malt. Taste toffee grapes caramel and raisin. Lingering late note of nicely dring hop and just a hint of acidity. Right on keel as a refreshing Dunkel and one of the more palatable of the major-brand German beers.

10/4/08 On draught at Leavenworth Oktoberfest, Leavenworth, Wa. Aroma is sweet light roast forward with a background of soft fruity esters. Appearance is slightly hazy brown with a moderate maintained off-white head. Flavor is sweet roast with munich malt forward with a slightly fruity character and medium roasty bittering. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a medium carb textre. Overall, this is the classic example, but a little light on character.

This one pours a clear, dark brown color with a small, tan, rapidly dissipating head. It has very light toasty, malty aroma. Light bodied and light flavored as well, it is slightly malty, with a clean finish and just a bit of lingering sweetness. There is nothing spectacular about this one, but it is not bad and fairly drinkable.

Dark, but very clear pour with a white head. Aroma has caramel and a little fruit. Roasted flavor. Aftertaste is semi-dry.

Bottle. Pours a brown color with a small off white head that diminshes quickly. The aroma is light hops with hints of caramel. The taste is very smooth with a sweet clean finish. I enjoyed this one and am looking forward to having it on tap.
