Deep dark brown pour with a healthy head that dissipates quickly. Strong appearance accopmanied by an equally strong aroma. Sweet and malty with caramel and molasses just slightly offset by hints of floral hops. Definitely medium bodied, if not medium to full. Smooth on the tongue, clear of any biting hoppiness. Taste of roasted malt dominates with hints of sweet fruits but overall very mild.

About as watery as a beer gets. Pretty much all malt, if you can call it that, cuz there’s hardly any malt in there. Light as hell, transparent even though it’s a dunkel.

A very dark and moderately distinctive dunkel. Mouthfeel is slightly creamy and savory, with prominent roasted malts. Chocolate sweetness follows, rolling through hints of bitterness. When it finishes there is some skunkiness in the aftertaste, but not too much to complain about overall. A clean and refreshing beer that’s moderately heavy. I wouldn’t drink more than 3 of these at once.

Dark brown color...almost opaque. Fluffy head, though it fades a bit fast. Aroma of sweet malt, with just a hint of bitterness. Slightly sweet malt flavor up front...very crisp, light mouthfeel. Back is joined by a subtle hop bitterness, with somewhat of a sweet aftertaste. Pretty basic dark pilsner...very easy drinking, while only possessing a slight complexity.

Draft @ Schmidts, Columbus German Village. A very sweet dunkel that reminded me of the least interesting Austrian example with its plummy notes, though the mineral side of this German rendition did seem out of place. After a few sip, it really tastes pretty much like raisin bread over which you’d throw a small amount of chocolate powder. Light-medium bodied, not so easy to drink as you may think. Fair, but I would not bother again.
